Most people do not associate innovation and the notion of a lean startup with government, but former Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of the United States Aneesh Chopra shares his insights about data and how government data can be a force of positive change to enable the private sector for the benefit of everyone. Chopra served as the first Chief Technology Officer of the United States, appointed by President Barack Obama. Chopra previously served as Virginia's fourth Secretary of Technology. As an assistant to the president, Chopra designed the National Wireless Initiative, helped launch Startup America, and executed an "open innovation" strategy across the government built on private-sector collaboration -- opening up data, convening on standards and staffing "lean government startups."
