The Frontier State
Pioneering PubLic Sector Innovation
Welcome to The Frontier State
Despite the best efforts of so many on the inside of the public sector and within industry, public sector technology initiatives continue to struggle and the taxpayer is suffering the consequences. The failure to understand all of the different stakeholders, incentive structures, budget processes, and relevant regulatory policy are holding the public sector back.
The Frontier State is on a mission to change that by bringing technology leaders from across the country and from all sides of the ecosystem to identify common challenges, share best practices, and collaboratively develop resources and solutions that push progress forward.
The Frontier State Fellowship
We believe that real change happens when curious and diverse minds come together with a focus on working together to deliver meaningful outcomes. This Fellowship has been created to build a community that intentionally and strategically fosters collaboration between technology leaders across the public and private sectors.
Our work focuses on identifying common technology-related challenges or opportunities across the public sector ecosystem and then co-developing resources, guides, model policies, and process innovations that support the mission.
If you have something to add these efforts, we’d love to hear from you!
Frontier State Fellowship Retreats
Frontier Fellowship Retreats are high-impact gatherings designed to inspire and connect technology leaders from across the country. These Retreats are capped at 50 attendees to ensure opportunities to meaningfully engage and learn from each other, strengthen leadership skills, and develop solutions to common opportunities and challenges.
Typically 2 days and 3 nights, these Retreats blend a mix of team-building activities, understandable technology substance, and tangible outcomes. With an emphasis on the education, healthcare, transportation, public safety, and government administration, the focus areas for our work include:
Team building and recruiting, leadership, and organizational management
