ICP Intelligence February 2026: Government

Industry in Government & Non-Profit

What are the latest technology and data trends shaping government priorities? Government sector priorities are undergoing a significant shift towards technology and data adoption. Over the last six months, Technology factor mentions surged by +1.91 and Data by +1.07, indicating a strong move to re-engineer procurement for faster tech adoption and consolidate technology across national labs. The current factor profile highlights high importance for Stakeholder (4.74/5) and Growth (4.59/5), but Data (2.91/5) and Technology (2.94/5) remain areas with substantial room for development despite their recent growth. This population notably divides into three behavioral clusters, with the majority (52.9%) being High-Technology / High-Data, suggesting a strong, albeit nascent, drive for digital transformation. This intensified focus on technological integration implies a pressing need for solutions that address the inherent complexities of rapid public sector modernization.
