Innovation Night

March 30, 2026 | 5-7 p.m.
Brought to you by Sourcewell Ventures

Where public-sector challenges meet startup solutions—live.

Public leaders face rising expectations, workforce pressures, outdated systems, and stretched resources. Innovation Night brings together the startups building near-market technologies that can meaningfully address these challenges—and we need your voice in the process.

This event gives public practitioners a direct role in shaping solutions before they scale.

  • Explore technologies designed to boost efficiency, transparency, and community outcomes
  • Learn what’s emerging across GovTech—and how agencies like yours are modernizing
Your insights help shape the solutions that serve millions.

Join fellow public-sector leaders, innovators, and practitioners for an evening dedicated to actionable solutions and authentic dialogue.
