The Future Of The Public Sector – The SAP Industry Cloud Series – Futurum Tech Podcast Interview Series

On this special episode of the Futurum Tech Podcast – Interview Series I am joined by Darren Pulsipher, Chief Solutions Architect Public Sector at Intel and Leslie Casson Stevens, Public Sector Industry Advisor for SAP. This is the fourth episode in a new series — done in partnership with SAP and Intel — where I will be speaking with advisors and executives across seven different industries on the state of their industry and how SAP Industry Cloud powered by Intel technology plays a vital role in the future.

The Future of the Public Sector

In our conversation we discussed the following:

  • An exploration of how government agencies are redefining the back office to enable more agility
  • The areas that COVID-19 accelerated for the public sector
  • The areas that got left behind during the pandemic
  • What organizations need to do to keep transformations going in the future
  • What technologies the public sector needs to invest in

The public sector, like many other industries, had to rapidly accelerate digital transformation last year. My conversation with Darren and Leslie explores these changes and a little bit more. It’s definitely one you don’t want to miss.
