“This partnership represents an important opportunity to help the public sector better serve its constituents,” says Info-Tech Research Group’s Chief Global Services Officer, Hannes Scheidegger. “TechTables has built an exceptional platform that connects directly with the very leaders we strive to serve, the CIOs, CTOs, and technology executives driving modernization across government and accelerating critical projects. By collaborating with Joe and his audience, we’re creating authentic, narrative-driven conversations that help public sector leaders navigate complex IT challenges and newer technologies. We are truly better together.”
Through this collaboration, TechTables and Info-Tech will produce multi-episode podcasts under the TechTables Better Together series, featuring Info-Tech analysts and executives alongside public sector CIOs. Each episode will explore emerging technology priorities such as AI adoption, cybersecurity, data governance, and the modernization of citizen services, combining TechTables’ narrative storytelling with Info-Tech’s research-driven insights.
“Info-Tech Research Group has long provided public sector leaders with guidance they can apply directly to their mission,” says Joe Toste, Founder and Host of TechTables. “Tom Zehren’s insights on IT transformation and the firm’s recent research on technology trends align strongly with the conversations our audience values. Through this partnership, we will feature timely perspectives from Info-Tech experts alongside senior CIOs and help leaders navigate the challenges shaping government technology.”
The Miami Live Podcast Tour, hosted in partnership with the City of Coral Gables, will include a discussion with Tom Zehren on the future of IT leadership and the insights shared in his recent keynote at Info-Tech LIVE 2025 in Las Vegas. The session is designed to promote peer learning through a small-group, conversational format focused on real-world challenges faced by state, local, and higher education leaders.
“TechTables provides a trusted space for technology leaders to speak authentically about the challenges and opportunities shaping their mission,” said Tom Zehren, CEO of Info-Tech Research Group. “This partnership enables us to join those conversations directly, meet CIOs and senior leaders where they are, and demonstrate Info-Tech’s expertise and commitment to supporting IT in the public sector market. As we build toward Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas, we’re excited to bring these conversations to life and continue supporting the leaders who are transforming government through technology.”
The collaboration will continue into 2026 with participation at Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas, where TechTables will host recorded sessions with industry leaders and analysts. The partnership emphasizes both organizations’ commitment to fostering dialogue, connection, and shared learning across the public sector IT community.
