The National Association of State CIOs (NASCIO) reported in its 2025 State CIO Survey that many states have been providing supplemental funding to their CIO organizations to use on IT modernization and/or innovation. Whether streamlining state DMVs or setting up digital services for courts, agencies are focusing on providing better, more streamlined services to their customers.
Included in these modernization efforts is the continuing embrace of the cloud. All the respondents to the NASCIO survey said they have a multi-cloud strategy; their reasons were many and varied, such as modernizing their applications, optimizing their budgets, and aging (legacy) hardware. CIOs in states with federated governance structures discussed selecting software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions, with the potential to build on their state’s cloud portfolio.
Join us as thought leaders from government and industry discuss the legacy landscape and how the advent of cloud platforms and SaaS are enabling states to cut their legacy debts and provide citizens with digital infrastructure that makes their lives a little easier.
