Vivek Kundra on Open Goverment and Cloud
Posted by Praneeth Patlola | Filed under Gov2.0
Vivek Kundra (CIO, US) shares his great vision for Govt Infrastructure to integrate data, involve citizens, create transparency. He compares typical Govt. Contracting model to the new way of using public talent and open data management saving millions of dollars. Very soon we would be seeing a great shift of outsourced Govt. Projects from the Big Chaps like IBM, ACS, Accenture, Deloitte to open source communities and individual citizens. This could blow off similar to the market of iPhone and Facebook application pouring down. Here is a great opportunity of the Open Source community to participate and contribute their efforts for the country.
Here is a video which show the Vivek Kundra speaking on Govt Infrastructure, Gov2.0, open data, data.gov, IT Dashboard to track the current contracts and the assigned vendors.
