Description

During the last decade, the explosion of digital technology has revolutionized entire industries from transportation to retail. Yet, governments have been slow to unlock the full potential of technology and digital platforms - until now.

The Ontario Government has unveiled a new Digital Government program that will change the game – accelerating innovation, better leveraging data and putting users first by designing simpler, faster and easier-to-use online services for people.

But they can’t do it alone.

On October 17th, the Brookfield Institute for Innovation + Entrepreneurship and Ontario’s Digital Government Team will co-host: Let’s Get Digital. This launch event will bring together digital leaders across industry, community, non-for-profit, and government to infuse new ideas and voices as Ontario accelerates its digital change strategy.

What you can expect: delicious snacks, fun games, inspiring speakers, and a room full of civic innovators and entrepreneurs.

Ideas generated will be collected, synthesized, and posted online for anyone to review. These insights will be supplemented with research conducted by the Brookfield Institute for Innovation + Entrepreneurship, and shared with government leaders.

Unable to join us? Host your own Satellite Social. All tools and resources will be posted by mid-October.
