Panel: Government Open Collaboratives

A panel of experts from government and the private sector will discuss the key elements of successful cross boundary projects.  Governments have a strong interest in sharing the cost of deploying similar capabilities across jurisdiction or state lines, but there are still few success stories.  We will present some of the more successful initiatives and copy their model to engage the audience and the panel in identifying additional communities of interest. 

Distinguished invited panelists slated for participation the dialog represent:

• Anaylze Soft INC. - President and CEO Arup Patranabish
• Mozilla Foundation - Board Member Brian Belhendorf
• Collaborative Software Initiative - Chief Executive Stuart Cohen
• Medsphere - Chief Medical Officer Dr. Edmund Billing
• OpenApps - Founder and Managing Director Mel McIntyre
• OpenSourcery LLC Co-founder and CEO  Brian Jamison
• Microsoft - National Technology Officer Stuart McKee
