About the Innovation Team @ OCTO

The  District’s Innovation Team (i-Team)  helps city leaders deliver bold results and expand a culture of innovation in government. Situated in the Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO), the District’s i-Team works closely with other agencies as an in-house consultancy—quickly diving into a high-priority issue, engaging everyone from front-line staff to local communities, then developing new ideas that can be tested in real-world settings. Once a solution is ready for citywide roll-out, the i-Team transitions it to the sponsoring agency, freeing the i-Team to tackle the next big challenge.
