Conversations with City CIOs & CITOs - Jan Bradley & Scot Barker - Episode 145

In this episode, we sit down with two visionary leaders driving innovation in municipal government: Jan Bradley, Chief Information Technology Officer (CITO) of Calgary, and Scot Barker, Chief Innovation Officer (CINO) of Burlington, Vermont. From AI adoption and cybersecurity to legacy system modernization and equitable digital access, they share candid insights on:

Balancing innovation with risk: How cities experiment with emerging tech (like Calgary's "Wave Centre" for rapid prototyping) while safeguarding data and public trust.

The post-COVID mandate: Why digital transformation is no longer optional—and how it's reshaping citizen engagement and service delivery.

Data as a strategic asset: Practical approaches to unlocking value from data (without drowning in legacy systems or privacy pitfalls).

Talent and partnerships: How to attract tech talent to the public sector and collaborate effectively with vendors, academia, and communities.

The future of govtech: Bold predictions on AI, quantum computing, and the technologies that will redefine local government in the next 5 years.

Whether you're a public sector leader navigating tight budgets and complex stakeholder needs or a solution provider looking to align with government priorities, this conversation offers actionable lessons and real-world examples from the front lines of civic innovation.
