Gov 2.0?

Some of you techies might have heard about a big conference that integrates technology and the federal government, called Gov 2.0, a conference which will be held at the Grand Hyatt in DC from September 7-8. This conference is different from your typical tech event, it’s more than a networking event where you meet and greet. The government’s role is to enable the tech community to create platforms and web tools to become more affective in governance, doing it all without procurement.

The government is going after tech firms who can build solutions and create platforms that can simplify practical business practices, changing the way government agencies operate.
