Washington DC Digital Government Summit 2026

Government Technology, the e.Republic media brand covering public sector IT, runs its annual Washington Digital Government Summit at the George Washington University Student Center in Foggy Bottom.

Artificial intelligence sits alongside cybersecurity, data governance and digital service delivery on the agenda rather than dominating it, so this is a broader public sector technology event with a substantial AI component rather than a dedicated AI conference. For practitioners working on government AI deployment, the value is in the peer conversation with people facing the same procurement, data quality and workforce constraints.

Attendees span state, local and federal government, which is a wider mix than the purely federal events elsewhere on the Washington calendar.

Registration is free for public sector employees. Detailed session times were not published on the listing at the time of writing, so the times shown are indicative.
