Opening Keynote – Find Your Voice

Clark/Dawson

Jim Meskimen, Master Impressionist and Communication Coach

Today’s culture emphasizes the value of teamwork and collaboration, sometimes at the expense of the individual. This is particularly true in the IT arena where you can sometimes find yourself stereotyped, or even worse, not taken seriously by potential stakeholders. What good are insights and solutions if your words get lost in the crowd? You need to make sure that you’re heard! Jim Meskimen has spent the past 25 years studying the most famous, creative and interesting people in modern times. In this fascinating and amusing session, Jim discusses – and illustrates – the traits and methods used by some of the best and most charismatic communicators in the world. Don’t settle for being “one of the crowd”. YOU have a unique identity. YOU have a voice!

Collaboration for Contracting

Miller

The IT landscape is changing and with it contracting for IT services has become increasing complex. You don’t need to go it alone…. Join this discussion on how local government and other non-profit entities can leverage buying power with state and multi- jurisdictional contracts to purchase software, hardware and IT services.

The Wide World of the Internet of Things

Hart

The Internet of Things is as vast as it sounds – it encompasses every object that’s able to exchange data through electronics, software, sensors or connectivity. From smart water meters, to connected street lights, the already huge expanse continues to grow. So how can this information be used to an organization’s advantage? This session explores the relationship between the Things and government organizations.

Lunch Keynote – Cybersecurity – Indiana’s New Defense

Clark/Dawson

Cyber-defense is a top priority for Indiana Governor Mike Pence. By their very nature, security threats are constantly shifting and changing shape and Cyber-attacks have become more organized, advanced, persistent and adaptive. It is imperative for government organizations to be prepared to meet these dire challenges and still meet current user’s demands and compliance requirements. This session will explore the tactics attackers use at the front lines of cyber warfare and inform you on the partnership the State of Indiana is building with Purdue University to leverage private sector expertise and students to defend state networks from next-generation cyberattacks. The new security center, called the Indiana Information Sharing & Analysis Center, or IN-ISAC for short, which had its Grand Opening on October 9, will assist the state in monitoring and defending their systems and networks.

The Evolution of Civic Engagement

Miller

Open government and transparency are often unattainable without an aggressive open data strategy. Data empowers citizens – but only if it’s valuable information and only if it’s in a form that’s easy to understand and use. Otherwise, all the hard work just goes to waste. This session looks at how to effectively use open data to streamline, improve upon, and amplify citizen relationships.

Maps for the Masses

Hart

The Indiana GIS community is data rich. Not only can we find over 240 geodata layers about our state on the IndianaMap (www.indianamap.org) but Indiana is one of very few states that have complete and current orthophotography and LiDAR datasets. But what does that mean if you’re not a GIS Geek? This session will showcase, in layman’s terms, some of the amazing uses of maps and simple user-facing tools currently available all sectors of government.

Moderator: Jim Sparks, Geographic Information Officer, Office of Technology, State of Indiana

Government is a Cool Place to Work

Porter

Everyone’s talking about the difficulty in recruiting and retaining IT people in government. It’s not just salary disparities; government often isn’t seen as an innovative place to work. This session will challenge that theory by demonstrating initiatives that prove government can be at the forefront of technology, provide great work/life balance and meaningful outcomes, as well as concrete best practices for recruiting and retaining the best technology workers.

Ken Clark, Chief Operating Officer, Information Services Agency, City of Indianapolis and Marion County

Beth Howen, Chief Information Officer, Information Services Agency, City of Indianapolis and Marion County

General Session – New Technologies

Clark/Dawson

Game of Drones

Once you leave your house you’re in the public domain. There are electronic eyes everywhere. Whether that’s good or bad depends on one’s point of view. This session takes a look at some of the nifty (and perhaps unsettling) technologies out there, including drones, body cams, video surveillance, and their impact on government and society as a whole.

Dr. Richard Baker, Director, Center for Unmanned Systems and Human Capital Development, Indiana State University

David Kane, Executive Director, Department of Homeland Security, State of Indiana

Virtual Reality in Government

Virtual reality has gone from a science fiction pipe dream to practical reality. Essentially, virtual reality means building upon the real, physical world around us by displaying information overlays and digital content tied to physical objects and locations. This session will feature some reality apps coming to a smart device near you.
