New Jersey; February 27, 2025 – When local government meets innovation, transformation begins. That’s exactly what took place at the New Jersey Conference of Mayors (NJCM) Winter Summit 2025, where Himanshu Goil joined a distinguished panel of civic leaders and technology innovators to discuss the powerful role of AI in shaping the future of local governance.
The session was moderated by Mayor Michael Stanzilis of Mount Arlington, and included a dynamic panel featuring Carl Mazzanti, Co-Founder and President of eMazzanti Technologies, Brent Berkley, Strategic Relationships Director at Axon Enterprise, and Lindsey Cormack, Associate Professor at Stevens Institute of Technology. Together, the panelists addressed the critical question: How can municipalities make smarter, safer, and more connected decisions in an increasingly digital world?
The discussion touched on a variety of topics, from building digital infrastructure for resilient communities to using AI-powered compliance reviews for building permits. Himanshu shared his insights on how AI tools are simplifying government processes, improving accuracy, and reducing human error. He emphasized how these tools help local governments stay compliant with regulations, ensuring transparency and efficiency throughout the process.
As the conversation progressed, the panelists explored the integration of low-code solutions for municipalities, underscoring the importance of citizen engagement and the need for equity in digital transformation. They all agreed that AI is not merely a tool, but a crucial partner in rebuilding public trust and enhancing government transparency.
The session highlighted the vital role of AI in making governments smarter and more efficient, while ensuring they remain deeply connected to their communities. As Himanshu concluded, “Innovation doesn’t need to be overwhelming. When done with intention, it becomes empowering.”
The NJCM Winter Summit 2025 also featured a powerful keynote address by Colonel Patrick Callahan, Superintendent of the New Jersey State Police. Colonel Callahan shared insights on how AI is already transforming law enforcement and public safety, helping agencies respond faster and more efficiently to evolving threats in the community.
The summit was a strong reminder that AI, when purposefully applied, has the potential to drive real change in local government. As the panelists emphasized, AI isn’t just something for the future — it’s already shaping the way municipalities function today. Those who embrace it will be better equipped to face the challenges of tomorrow.
