Deciding on AI: Artificial Intelligence in Public Administration

The second annual conference on how Italian public administrations should actually introduce AI, run by the think tank Concreta-Mente with Sapienza's DIAG department of computer, control and management engineering, held at DIAG on Via Ariosto. The 2026 edition is about the decision itself: which areas and use cases to target, which technologies to pick, and which implementation approach. The use cases presented were selected by a scientific committee through an open call for papers, and contributions come from academics and serving public administrators rather than vendors. The stated aim is to pool operational experience and work towards a shared adoption model. Doors at 17:15, running 17:30 to 20:00, in Italian. No speakers were named at listing time and no price is published. Why go: govtech is where Rome's AI work actually lands, and a call-for-papers format with practitioners on stage beats the usual panel of suppliers. Best for people delivering AI inside public bodies or selling into them.
