Cascadia Public-Sector AI Summit: From Pilot to Deployment

 

A peer forum for senior public sector AI and technology leaders, including deputy CIOs, agency AI leads, and state and local IT, security, and data leaders. Delegations from Washington State and British Columbia will join Oregon, bringing a cross border perspective on how AI is actually being adopted across jurisdictions.

Sessions will cover:

• Procurement as a bottleneck to AI adoption
• Real AI use-cases from governments in the region
• Financing and ROI framing for budget-constrained governments
• Change management as a through-line across every session
• A hands-on workshop with Applied Curiosity, AWS, and Anthropic on moving from pilot to deployment
