Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian will kick things off during our opening keynote, reflecting on the public sector’s impressive ability over the last year to transform quickly and collaborate more broadly than ever before. 

Then, we’ll welcome Mike Daniels, Google Cloud’s vice president of global public sector, who will share important updates and lessons learned from a year of unprecedented challenges and achievements , and look ahead to the future of service delivery and experiences in the digital world. You definitely won’t want to miss this keynote, where we will share real-world stories of public sector innovation and highlight how Google Cloud supports the unique requirements of government organizations, educational institutions, and researchers.

After the keynote, you’ll want to tune in for two days of interactive content, featuring thought-provoking panels, keynotes, customer success stories, and more. We’re especially excited to welcome more than 40 Google Cloud public sector customers to the virtual stage. Their candid stories and experiences will showcase the creativity and innovation they are using to tackle some of the world’s toughest challenges.

Session topics will cover critical issues including:

• Applying AI to overcome limitations. Hear how the City of Toronto, Upper Grand School District (Ontario, Canada), DoD Joint AI Center, and the Illinois Department of Employment Security are using AI to scale up, and be more efficient and productive.

• Prioritizing student success. Partners like Jenzabar and Strategic Education are leveraging analytics and machine learning to improve learning environments for better student outcomes. 

• Delivering benefits to citizens faster. Customers like the State of Illinois embraced virtual agents to scale response and support to citizens. 

• Driving research outcomes. Partners like GDIT are working with Google Cloud to conduct data discovery at scale and help improve disease research in areas like breast cancer.

We’re also pleased to offer a series of sessions focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion to help our public sector community lead with openness in the workplace, in the classroom and with citizen services. We will kick off day two of our event with a special keynote from Dr. Jennifer Eberhardt, author of Biased: Uncovering the Hidden Prejudice That Shapes What We See, Think and Do, who will walk us through how bias shows up in our lives and offer tools to help address it.
