Session 1: The Problem - Challenges in Realizing the Power of AI in Gov

Government Keynote 1: 3 Ways to Bring AI to Your Agency
  • Keegan Mills, Engineering IT & Cyber Tech Lead, Marine Corps Systems Command
There are a myriad of challenges agencies face when they look to onboard a new technology like GenAI. In this lightning keynote, a government expert will highlight those barriers and share creative ways agencies have overcome them.

Lightning Keynote 1: How AI Can Unlock Insights from Documents, Video and Other Content
  • Murtaza Masood, Managing Director, State & Local Government, Box
In state and local government, some of the most valuable data is not found in traditional databases. It's found in the wide variety of content generated in employees’ day-to-day work: case notes, court filings, Word documents, Excel files, drone footage and PDF forms. These are examples of unstructured data — information that doesn’t fit into the rows and columns of a traditional database. In this lightning keynote, you'll learn from an industry expert how AI and related technology can help agencies get more value from unstructured content.

Lightning Keynote 2: How to Move Ahead on Your AI Journey
  • Stephen Tuomey, Data Center Account Executive, Dell Technologies
As agencies explore a growing range of use cases for artificial intelligence (AI), they face a looming challenge: Their existing IT operations, while perhaps sufficient for traditional applications, are not ready to meet the demands of full-fledged AI initiatives. Replacing a horse-and-buggy with a sports car won't pay off if you're still driving on a dirt trail. In this lightning keynote, you'll hear from an industry expert who will explain how the task begins with understanding where you're trying to go, that is, how you see AI augmenting your workforce. Once you've defined the use case, you need to build an AI model and feed it with the necessary data. And then it all comes down to the infrastructure.
1-2 p.m. ET/10-11 a.m. PT
Session 2: The Journey: Best Practices and Lessons Learned on Gov’s AI Operational Journey

Government Keynote 2: AI in 2026 and Beyond
  • Justin Iannello, DO, MBA , Chief Digital Health, Artificial Intelligence, and Health Informatics Officer, VISN 21 (Sierra Pacific Network), U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
2025 has already been a transformative year for government, and we are only halfway through it. In this lightning keynote, you'll hear from a government leader about what they see evolving in the world of government AI in 2026 and beyond.

Lightning Keynote 3: How AI Could Be the Basis for Massive Efficiency in Gov
  • Jonathan Alboum, Federal CTO, ServiceNow
Good data and data governance are the bedrock of AI. However, realizing the efficiencies created by AI can sometimes be harder to harness. In this lightning keynote, you'll learn from an AI industry expert about how, by modernizing an agency’s workflows with AI, agencies can truly realize the efficiencies promised by AI.

Lightning Keynote 4: How to Minimize the Risk on the Road to AI
  • Chad Cisco, Chief Customer Officer, DataRobot
Agencies cannot move ahead with AI at speed unless they learn to manage the risks associated with it. And failing to move ahead is not an option. Chad Cisco, Chief Customer Officer at DataRobot, discusses how agencies can accelerate their adoption of AI without putting their systems and data at risk.
