E-Gov 2003 to honor innovative agencies

Fifty government agencies will be honored for innovative e-government initiatives at the E-Gov 2003 Conference and Exposition. The four-day event starts June 9 at the Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C.

The fifth annual awards ceremony will acknowledge three levels of award recipients: pioneers, explorers and trailblazers. The awards are for solutions that improve e-government delivery and exemplary achievements in e-government and higher education service delivery.

Agencies in federal, state and local governments will be recognized. Representatives of winning agencies will be on hand in the government solutions center at the conference.

"The installed applications showcased in the center are the models for effective service delivery, efficient processing, quick response time and state-of-the-art technical infrastructure," said Mike Smoyer, general manager of E-Gov, which is part of the FCW Media Group.
