8:30 am Pacific	Registration and Morning Refreshments Friedman Court
9:30 am Pacific	Welcome and Opening Remarks Setzer Foundation Auditorium Nick Maduros, Secretary, California Government Operations Agency
9:40 am Pacific	Keynote - Making Government Work Better, Together Setzer Foundation Auditorium California has no shortage of good ideas. The hard part is making them spread, scale, and change how government actually works. The Office of Data and Innovation Director Jeffery Marino kicks off the day with a call to bring transformation closer to home: making services easier for Californians to navigate, reducing the fragmentation that slows progress, and building stronger connections among the leaders responsible for making change happen. The opportunity is bigger than any one project or agency. It is about creating a government that learns faster, works together better, and delivers better experiences for the people it serves. Jeffery Marino, Director, Office of Data and Innovation, State of California
10:00 am Pacific	The Government Operating System - Executive Roundtable Setzer Foundation Auditorium California knows how to transform. The challenge is making transformation easier to repeat. A new digital service, a faster hiring process, a shared data capability, or a breakthrough built during an emergency can prove what is possible, but too often those successes remain the exception. This lively discussion delves into the operating system underneath government: the policies, processes, technology, workforce, funding, and shared services that determine whether good ideas spread or stall. What needs to change so that successful transformation becomes easier to scale across California government? Moderator: Cathilea Robinett, Chief Executive Officer, e.Republic Adam Dondro, Agency Information Officer, CalHHS & Director, CalHHS Office of Technology and Solutions Integration Nancy Farias, Director, Employment Development Department, State of California Russell Fong, Undersecretary, California Government Operations Agency Chris Given, State Chief Information Officer & Director, Department of Technology, State of California

11:00 am Pacific	We ARE the Change: Turn Ideas into Action Friedman Court The right people in the room can move a problem forward. Designed for active participation, this session gathers attendees together around shared challenges facing California government. Groups will dig into a problem, identify what is getting in the way, and map out the people, decisions, partnerships, and resources needed to make progress. The goal: use the expertise in the room to develop actionable changes after the summit. Moderator: Jeffery Marino, Director, Office of Data and Innovation, State of California
12:15 pm Pacific	Lunch Friedman Court
1:15 pm Pacific	We Can Make Government Easier to Operate Setzer Foundation Auditorium California has shown it can move quickly when the moment demands it. During emergencies, long-standing barriers can fall away, resources align, decisions accelerate, and work that once seemed impossible gets done. The challenge is making more of that possible in normal operations. In this interactive session we examine the procurement, funding, hiring, approval, technology, and back-office processes that slow good work down, and ask which rules, structures, and ways of working we can redesign so progress is easier to sustain. Moderator: Allen Sheldon, State of California Lead Partner, KPMG Monica Bobra, Principal Data Scientist, Office of Data and Innovation, State of California Susan Fanelli, Chief Deputy Director, Health Quality and Emergency Response, Department of Public Health, State of California Jason Piccione, Deputy Director, Chief Information Officer, Office of Information Services, Dept of Consumer Affairs, State of California Sarah Soto -Taylor, Deputy Secretary, Strategic Development, California Government Operations Agency
2:00 pm Pacific	We Will Design Government Around People Setzer Foundation Auditorium People don’t experience government one agency at a time. They are trying to find work, support a family, get licensed, access benefits, or start a business, and too often they must understand the structure of government to get what they need. Building on efforts like single sign-on and one-stop access, this session explores how California can better connect services, data, identity, and channels around real-life needs. With audience engagement throughout, we'll also discuss what employees need, from better tools and shared information to redesigned work, to deliver that experience. Moderator: Liana Bailey-Crimmins, Chief Information Officer, Covered California Ajay Gupta, Chief Transformation Officer, Department of Motor Vehicles, State of California Morten Ostergaard, Vice President, cBrain Kathleen Webb, Chief Deputy Executive Director, Operations, Covered California

3:15 pm Pacific	Technology Helps Us Redesign the Work Setzer Foundation Auditorium AI can be a catalyst for rethinking how government work gets done from the ground up. Put the people who know the work closest to the problem, rethink the process, remove unnecessary steps, standardize how information moves, and then apply technology where it can make the biggest difference. We will explore how program and technology teams can use AI to build better ways of working, share what works across agencies, and give employees a real role in shaping the next generation of government work.
