Our latest GovTech Innovator is Ely Kahn, co-founder of Sqrrl, which is a start-up that helps public and private groups organize big data to make it easier to query and analyze.

Kahn’s background qualifies him to talk about securely managing big data in the public sector. His resume includes being the cybersecurity director for the White House’s national security staff, where his job included protecting federal data.

  • How state and local jurisdictions can benefit from tackling big data hurdles;
