OPENING KEYNOTE


Vivek KundraVivek Kundra, Federal Chief Information Officer

In March of this year, President Barack Obama named Vivek Kundra the "Federal Chief Information Officer" -- a new position that will oversee technology investments and technology spending by the federal government. Mr. Kundra also serves as e-government administrator for the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Mr. Kundra is working to ensure that the CIOs of federal agencies are advancing agendas that embrace open government, revolutionize technology in the public sector, and "reject the view that the public sector has to lag behind the private sector."
