Georgia Technology Innovation Showcase Recognizes IT Achievements in State, Local Agencies

Since 2011, the Georgia Technology Authority has sponsored the Georgia Technology Innovation Showcase, which recognizes state and local agencies for the innovative use of technology in serving their constituents. The showcase also promotes the sharing of ideas, experiences, and lessons learned. In selecting projects to receive top honors, the evaluation panel focuses on the level of innovation in addressing a specific business problem and the significance of the project in improving operating efficiency, saving money, and enhancing service delivery. Awards are presented annually at the Georgia Digital Government Summit.

Over the years, several projects selected for the showcase have gone on to earn further recognition in national awards programs, most notably the State IT Recognition Awards sponsored by the National Association of State CIOs (NASCIO).

The following overviews describe the projects selected for the 2018 showcase. The first project, Georgia Gateway, also received a first-place award in 2018 from NASCIO in the category of Cross-boundary Collaboration and Partnerships.
