GovExec

Is it too early to circle back? We’re thankful for our audience, employees, and partners who made 2024 spectacular! Here’s a quick look at some of the standout moments that defined our year as we gear up for another exciting chapter in 2025! In 2024, GovExec had more than 8.1 million monthly touchpoints with government and military leaders nationwide. Our audience also had a lot to say about our publications, with one reader writing in to say:  “My experience is that you report timely and relevant federal and federal career news MUCH faster than my own agency. It also gives me a sense that I serve as part of a larger US Government. It reinforces the sense that we are truly ‘all in this together.’" Over 50,000 registrants brought that same energy to one of our 256 events this year. Trending topics included AI/ML, Cybersecurity, JADC2, and Quantum Computing. But our connections didn’t stop there. Across our publications, our public sector audience couldn’t get enough of our timely and impactful reporting. Here’s what resonated the most: 🟠 Trump's 'DOGE' commission promises mass federal layoffs, ending telework - Eric Katz, Government Executive https://lnkd.in/gqm_crHD 🟠 TSA uses 'minimum' data to fine-tune its facial recognition, but some experts still worry - Edward Graham, Nextgov/FCW https://lnkd.in/eMeJNUsh 🟠 More than 17M low-income households will experience service disruptions if internet subsidy ends - Kery Murakami, Route Fifty https://lnkd.in/gMTvDuzP 🟠Army will trim 5% of general-officer jobs in coming years, chief’s spokesman says - Meghann Myers, Defense One https://lnkd.in/e88YWYC7 🟠 Washington Technology's 2024 Top 100 https://lnkd.in/gEpcbTEC Thanks to all of our trusted partners, dedicated team members, and loyal readers for an incredible year. Here’s to 2025! #GovExec #PublicSectorMarketing #B2G #GovCon #GovExec #PublicSectorMarketing #B2G #GovCon #2024Wrapped #PublicSectorWrapped #GovConWrapped
