Government Modernization in New York

The pandemic has exposed serious shortcomings regarding our antiquated systems but also our abilities to be inspired through a rapid call to action from tech and government leaders, advocacy groups, healthcare workers, entrepreneurs and engineers. Whether by helping our hospitals, schools, small businesses, or our most vulnerable communities, New York’s tech sector has been at the forefront of the city’s response. We know it's time to take modernization more seriously and in a faster manner. How can we get things to progress faster and more efficiently? This session discusses where to focus, what to prioritize, and how to proceed.
