AWS Public Sector Summit Online experience

Update July 2020: Content from the AWS Public Sector Summit Online is now available on-demand, through 30 September 2020.

On June 30, 2020, you are invited to attend the AWS Public Sector Summit Online. We’ve curated content for this event so that you can learn the tools, have access to resources, and interact with AWS experts, tailored to the stage you and your organization are at in building on AWS — all from the comfort of your home. From our 30-minute breakout sessions to the keynote to our distinguished zones, there is content for everyone. This online event will also feature AWS experts in the breakouts and in the zones ready to answer your questions.
