Speakers
Across governments, public servants are running AI pilots, often without knowing that someone, somewhere, has already worked through the same problem. Teams seeking to leverage the power of AI routinely lose days hunting for comparative evidence that a colleague in the next department, or another government entirely, has already learned.
That's the gap the Government AI Navigator tool is designed to close. It's a free, living library of real government AI case studies that you can search and filter by sector, geography and scale, to see what worked, what didn't and connect with the people behind each project.
In this session, you'll hear from Apolitical's CEO Robyn Scott, Clare Martorana, the former U.S. Federal Chief Information Officer and member of the Government AI Navigator Advisory Council, and public servants behind successful real-world government AI projects. You'll understand how AI is reshaping work across the public sector, as well as learn how these projects were designed, what challenges teams faced and which lessons you could apply in your role. You'll leave with inspiration to inform your AI-enabled initiatives and a clear sense of how to put the Navigator to use in your own context.
Who should join:
Public servants working on AI, digital transformation, service delivery, policy, innovation or organisational change.
