A message from our Keynote Speaker

Welcome to the Dallas-Ft. Worth Regional Digital Government Summit. This summit is about harnessing that pioneering spirit of public servants to explore how technology can enhance operational efficiency, improve citizen services, and fortify our digital infrastructure for a resilient future. From securing our critical infrastructure to efficiently delivering citizen services, our goal is to collaborate with identifying strategies that strengthen our communities. While we represent dozens of municipalities, we share a common mission: serving our communities. Together, we can innovate more expeditiously and build a more resilient community for all.
