WASHINGTON, Jan. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Deloitte and Dcode announced a renewed annual collaboration to bring top emerging tech from the private sector to federal government agencies.

Through Dcode's federally focused accelerator for emerging tech and suite of government offerings to improve mission outcomes, Deloitte engages with cutting-edge tech companies and forward-leaning government leaders to facilitate matchmaking, teaming opportunities, and lasting improvements to the government's tech stack.

"The emerging tech ecosystem can be a powerful source of innovation for government agencies. We're excited to continue working with Dcode to help tech companies apply solutions to government missions and accelerate transformative value for our clients," said Mike Isman, Managing Director, Deloitte Consulting LLP.

The U.S. government has the opportunity to put some of the $90 billion dollars spent on tech in FY2021 towards bringing in the best emerging tech companies. Scouting and vetting the right commercial tech solutions that are ready to scale in the federal market is key to assessing risk and equipping tech companies to succeed.

"We work with emerging tech companies, the U.S. government, and key collaborators like Deloitte to bring top tech onto contract and into government missions," said Dcode CEO Meagan Metzger. "If government contractors, systems integrators and other firms can get better commercial tech onto federal contracts then it will drive substantive government innovation in this shifting landscape."

As Dcode builds out its community platform, Nexus, in response to increasing demand from emerging tech companies, venture capital investors, and the U.S. government, Deloitte will be a key player in supporting the growth of the government innovation ecosystem.
