Overview

Beyond the Beltway 2026

The SLED Market is Shifting. Are You?

If you’re serious about serving state and local government, Beyond the Beltway 2026 is the event you cannot miss. Every year, sales and marketing professionals from top-performing companies attend to do one thing: set themselves up for success. Where are governments spending? What’s driving procurement? What’s working for your peers – and what isn’t? Beyond the Beltway is where you find out.

Hear directly from state and local CIOs, agency heads and other decision-makers and buyers about:

• What’s bubbling to the top of their priorities
• What they actually want from industry partners
• How to earn their trust – and their business

We unpack the public-sector market intelligence your competitors wish they had.

• Macroeconomic forces shaping public budgets
• Emerging technologies influencing policy and service delivery
• IT spending patterns across jurisdictions
• What’s on the horizon and how to prepare
• Where the opportunities are – and where the pitfalls lie
