About: About PTI

Welcome

Public Technology Institute (PTI) is a national, not-for-profit member-supported organization based in Washington, D.C.

As the only technology organization created by and for cities and counties, PTI works with a core network of leading local government officials—the PTI membership—to identify opportunities for technology research, to share solutions and recognize member achievements, and develop best practices that address the technology management, governance and policy issues that impact local government.

Officials from PTI member governments participate in Councils and Forums that address specific technology areas. Through partnerships with industry, federal agencies and other governmental organizations, PTI shares the results of its activities and the expertise of its members with the broader audience of the more than 30,000 U.S. cities and counties.

History

Established in 1971 by the major national associations representing state and local governments, PTI is the advocate and resource for early adopters and thought leaders who have a passion for the furtherance and wise deployment of technology in governance.

Today, PTI continues to enjoy a close relationship with the National League of Cities, National Association of Counties and International City/County Management Association.

The PTI Board of Directors is comprised of representatives from the three national associations, the PTI membership and private industry.
