Dr. Costis Toregas
President Emeritus
Public Technology, Inc. |
Dr. Costis Toregas recently capped a 32 year career at Public Technology, Inc. (PTI), retiring with the title of President Emeritus and with a promise to continue and give his exceptional energy and skills to his unwavering vision: that of strengthening local governments through the harnessing and effective use of technology. Since becoming President of PTI in 1985, he steered the organization to unprecedented success by creating innovative public/private partnerships which satisfied PTI's technology development and transfer mandate and created strong rewards for both sectors.
He has inspired innovative leadership among elected and appointed local government officials, both through lectures to their national assemblies and by working with them individually to define bold new directions for their jurisdictions using technology. Issues he is currently focused on include strategies to heal the digital divide, deployment of WiFi networks and effective promotion of transformative E-Gov programs.
