The Utah Approach to Emerging Technology & State Government

In the new economy, Technology and State Government go together like coffee and cookies in a Swedish Fika.

So, let’s look at how they do it in the Great State of Utah:

• WHO reviews new technology for the state: An agency review board made up of staff from various departments and business areas.
• HOW do the recommendations work? The board offers specific organizational perspectives on how a technology might be used to solve business problems for the state.
• DO THEY GET HELP? Yes, an external technology advisory board with representatives from outside of state government
• HOW DO THEY WORK TOGETHER? The two groups work together to ensure effective vetting before any tech investment are made
• NEW KID: The Center for Excellence for Artificial Intelligence established in 2019 is reviewing about a dozen major initiatives
