AI Meets Information Governance in the Public Sector

Wednesday, April 8, 2026 | 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. ET

Public sector AI adoption is caught in a "regulatory paradox": a strong push for rapid innovation occurring alongside a lack of clear   roadmaps and regulations for information safety. Data privacy regulations remain in full force.

For government information owners, the burden of responsibility for information governance has landed squarely on your shoulders. To innovate and modernize while keeping your information safe, you need a responsible information governance model that ensures only high-quality, compliant data is available for AI tools.

During this session, we’ll explore the four immediate steps you can take to ensure your agency’s AI adoption is secure, compliant, and trustworthy.

  1. Enforcing information minimization

  2. Implementing “need-to-keep” retention policies for AI tools

  3. Demanding privacy-preserving information architectures

  4. The importance of keeping a human in the loop

Balancing Public Meeting and Records Transparency Amid Rising Threats and Public Pressure

Public meetings and public records are foundational to transparency and accountability in county government. At the same time, today’s environment presents new challenges, as public officials and staff navigate heightened civic tension, evolving security risks, and increasing demands for information.

In this webinar, we will explore three interconnected priorities: maintaining safe and orderly public meetings, protecting the personal information of public officials and staff, and safeguarding sensitive resident data - including voter-related records - while continuing to meet legal requirements for public access.
