PSC Teams With CTC

The Professional Services Council said today it has entered into a memorandum of understanding with the California Technology Council to "develop a common agenda for entrepreneurship and innovation in government procurement of technology and services."

The move follows significant outreach by Defense Secretary Ash Carter to Silicon Valley companies as he seeks to inject innovation into the Pentagon.

Under the deal announced today, PSC and CTC will jointly develop content, participate in each other's meetings and collaborate on both federal advocacy as well as state advocacy in California.

They will jointly present a seminar in November in Silicon Valley on the state of the government market for disruptive technologies.
