Mission Impact: Federal FinOps Summit

Turning Technology Spending Into Mission Value Federal agencies are investing more than ever in cloud, AI, data, cybersecurity, shared services, and digital modernization. But the question is no longer “What are we spending?” It’s “What mission value are we getting?” Join us on November 4, 2026, for Mission Impact: Federal FinOps Summit — Turning Technology Spending into Mission Value, bringing together Federal and Department of War leaders in technology, finance, acquisition, and mission operations to explore the next evolution of FinOps. As government faces growing pressure to modernize, eliminate waste, strengthen accountability, and deliver measurable results, FinOps is expanding from cloud cost management to enterprise-wide technology value management.
