Join us for our inaugural Public Sector Tech Conference, a full-day event dedicated to the use of developing technologies within the Public Sector.

As opportunities for efficiencies and innovation abound, how can the Public Sector make the best use of the technologies on offer? How can it properly identify and mitigate the associated risks, ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory obligations, whilst achieving value for money and retaining public trust?

This full day conference will grapple with some of the key issues facing the public sector and look at the huge benefits that can be found for those organisations willing to focus on technology and driving strategy through innovation.

This is a must-attend event for professionals working in or with the public sector, particularly those with a focus on or interest in the power of utilising developing technology.
