Stephen Kelly, Government Chief Operating Officer, confirmed as speaker

Cloud computing is revolutionising the way the government engages the procurement and delivery of IT.  For decades, public sector IT has been dominated by multi-year, multi-million pound/dollar/euro contracts.  All this changes with the cloud.  THINK Cloud for Government 2014 is the must attend event for anyone seeking to engage with the latest knowledge and developments surrounding this game-changing area.

All of that changes in the cloud. The cloud enables:

•  Public Sector organisations to procure IT services as a commodity via public exchanges, such as the UK’s CloudStore.
•   Government technology to be delivered in a more flexible and adaptive manner, able it to react quickly to the needs of a changing political landscape.
•  Government to cut the cost to the taxpayer of IT delivery, which is essential in a time of austerity.
•  Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to compete on a level playing-field, breaking the
oligopoly of large systems providers in the public sector.
• Policy-makers to envisage and deliver new mechanisms of outreach and engagement with the
citizen.
