Two GSA Leaders Recognized with Powering Progress Awards

In case you missed it, the America 250 Powering Progress Awards, hosted by MeriTalk, will recognize leaders who are driving meaningful progress across federal IT as our nation approaches its 250th anniversary. We’re proud to celebrate two GSA leaders that have been recognized by MeriTalk’s America 250 Powering Progress Awards, spotlighting their hard work and innovation in serving the public through technology adoption. 

These awards celebrate excellence in two critical categories: the 5th Annual Cyber Defenders and the 3rd Annual AI Innovators. They honor leaders who are making a real difference by advancing artificial intelligence, strengthening cybersecurity, and accelerating progress in areas like automation, cloud computing, and customer experience.

Please join us in congratulating the following GSA leaders:

AI Innovator (Government)

GSA extends our congratulations to Larry, Rosa, and all the deserving government and industry leaders recognized in this year’s America 250 Powering Progress Awards. Their work is instrumental in shaping a more efficient, secure, and innovative future for federal IT.
