The Public Manager and ASPA's 2008 Annual Conference

The resounding support for the conference expressed by the public administration community creates a dynamic opportunity to showcase your organization for a keen, interested, and influential audience.

 

Your organization will also get in on the ground floor of an immensely popular, growing series of conferences and public discussion programs initiated by this summer’s inaugural conference.

 

Reach Your Target Audience. Reach more than 500 expected federal, state, local, and international managers and executives, public-service and nonprofit professionals, students in public-service or nonprofit fields, and private-sector workers who share an interest in your products and services. The influence of the diverse attendees will prove varied and extensive. As an integral part of the conference, exhibitors will interact face to face with busy decision makers and other professionals looking for the latest tools and practices available to manage effectively and transform bureaucracy.

 

The exhibit hall connects directly to the main ballroom and foyer, placing exhibitions at the epicenter of the conference. This highly visible area will receive traffic from all conference goers as the site for registration, networking dinner reception, and two daily breaks and luncheons and a general networking area.

 

The conference has been well promoted to readers of The Public Manager, members of the American Society for Public Administration (ASPA), and affiliate organizations, including Graduate School, USDA, and numerous other member-based organizations. ASPA alone boasts 9,000 members, and the distribution of The Public Manager reaches 23,000 individuals and groups associated with federal, state, local, international, academic, and nonprofit organizations.
