Are You a Practicing Innovator?

What does it take to be truly innovative as a public servant? How do you practice innovation at your agency?

It takes creativity, problem-solving, collaboration and execution. However, with busy schedules and growing workloads, it can be hard to prioritize innovation in government.

Which is why you’re invited to join us and your government peers for a free, full day of innovation. Register now for the Government Innovators Virtual Summit: Solving Your Agency’s Biggest Challenges, taking place on Wednesday, May 15 from 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. ET/6:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m. PT.
