National Insights – Winter Edition

Event Overview

Future-Proofing Canada’s Public IT Services for Speed and Agility

Canadian governments face pressures from all sides such as regulators require robust data governance and citizens demand the latest digital and mobile technologies. Legacy systems are riddled with redundancies and incompatibilities. Adopting the right technologies can help governments overcome these challenges and speed up service delivery while staying within the bounds of budgets. These technologies should focus on improving performance, productivity, efficiency, and security without sacrificing reliability or accessibility. 

However, with exciting new tools and applications and an volatile economy, it is impossible to predict which technology will suit your organization. Another critical question is training your workforce to handle future technologies. We’ve put together this ‘Winter Edition’ Virtual Event as part of our 2022 Innovation & IT Community National Insights series. To aid further exploration of how modern technologies can be optimally and sustainably utilized to yield maximum efficiency and cross-departmental collaboration and hear how IT leaders are managing their teams within the shifting nature of the tech-based workplace. Join us as we hear case studies from tech-focused peers and discuss how to further develop and integrate consistent, cohesive IT infrastructure strategies across Canada’s public sector.
