Government 2.0 Summit, 7-8 September 2010
Gov 2.0 Summit brings
together innovators from government and the private sector to highlight
technology and ideas that can be applied to the nation’s great
challenges. In areas as diverse as education, health care, energy, jobs,
and financial reform, there are unique opportunities to rethink how
government agencies perform their mission and serve our citizens. Social
media, cloud computing, web, and mobile technologies—all provide new
capabilities that government agencies are beginning to harness to
achieve demonstrably better results at lower cost.
Happening September 7-8 at the Grand Hyatt Washington, Gov 2.0 Summit brings the latest in technology thinking and capabilities to Washington, with fresh voices, cutting edge demos, and thought-provoking conversations.
We explore the implications of the latest technology for policy, for
the design of government programs, and for the implementation of
government technology strategy.
You’ll hear from industry giants like Cisco, Microsoft, and Google,
as well as innovative startups like Palantir, drop.io, Slideshare, and
more. You’ll also hear from leading government technology implementers
and policymakers about their successes, the obstacles they face, and
their plans for the future. Simply put, you’ll learn how the latest
technology can transform the way you do your job and achieve your
mission.
Our focus this year is on opening the door to innovation — learning about the latest technology and its application, and breaking down the barriers to its adoption.
