A message from our Keynote Speaker

I’m thrilled to be participating in the second annual San Diego Digital Government Summit, a pivotal event for San Diego public sector technology leaders. Building on the success of last year’s inaugural summit, we are once again bringing together innovators from across the greater San Diego area to connect, share insights, and explore the transformative potential of technology in enhancing the lives of everyone who calls San Diego home. This year’s Summit is another exceptional opportunity to learn, collaborate, and advance the digital transformation that continues to make our region a better place for all its residents.
