The GovCom Road Show-Houston

The GovCom Road Show, hosted by FORUM, is a nationwide series of curated, one-day gatherings designed to bring together leaders from the government contracting ecosystem. Each stop on the tour convenes federal, state, and local government stakeholders alongside industry executives, innovators, and growth leaders to explore the evolving landscape of public sector technology, policy, and procurement. The program blends forward-looking insights with practical strategies, creating a forum where attendees can learn how to navigate opportunities in the GovCon market while building meaningful relationships with peers and partners.

Taking place in cities across the country throughout the year, each event runs as a focused afternoon summit featuring curated speakers, market-specific topics, and intentional networking.
