I'd only change one thing about your response, which was great by the way and is exactly like my own views of the space. The changes are happening NOW in the federal space, and quite quickly in some sectors, you just have to know where to look. My company has actually seen more of it at the federal level than at the state or local levels. It may not be widespread for another 5 years, but it is going on now in many agencies.
The change you mention is definitely inevitable. People just have to understand it a little better and push a little harder to break their way into the market. I've been working in this space for a while, but my latest company is relatively new to it. Even though, we've made incredible headway. Growing VERY fast from government contracts, pushing innovation at every turn and finding some very receptive federal customers for the ideas we are offering up to them.
Agreed. I should have qualified my comment as you are here. Indeed, what I'm referring to is a systemic shift ie. visible easily across a landscape. In that context, I think my comments make more sense. But I'm thrilled to hear of your success! Please share any stories with us on Twitter @GovtechFund.
