It was held at Hilton Washington DC Capitol Hill, 525 New Jersey Ave NW, Washington, D.C. 20001.
Federal government IT and data leaders were the intended attendees.
It was worth a morning for federal IT and data leaders who wanted a peer-level look at cloud, edge and hybrid data strategy for AI, and the forum offered up to 3 CPE credits in a half-day format. Vendors seeking long meetings with agency buyers, or practitioners wanting deep technical training, would have gotten less from a session that ended at 12:30pm and had a speaker lineup that included industry names such as Cloudflare.
Federal technology events in Washington usually call for business attire, with suits or blazers common among both government and industry attendees.
