IEDC's Federal Economic Development Forum, held March 29-31 in the Washington, DC metro area, is the only annual event bringing together top federal economic development policymakers and thought leaders with economic development professionals from across the country.

The Forum by the Numbers

24 different Federal agencies, representing over 10 billion dollars in spending, sent participants to last year’s Federal Economic Development Forum, and we’re hoping to beat those numbers this year. With that much money up for grabs, it is crucial for economic developers to keep their federal knowledge and skills up-to-date. Attendees from more than 43 states (including Washington, DC) joined IEDC at the Forum last year, because they saw value in spending two days with dozens of federal agencies representing top-spending federal economic development programs. Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to learn about current and upcoming opportunities.

Why join your peers in Washington this spring? Consider this:

LEARN: Nowhere else will you get the latest information on current federal programs and initiatives. Be the first to know what is coming down the pipeline.  Participate in two days of workshops, roundtables, and interactive sessions.

TEACH: You will have direct access to dozens of officials and agencies that want YOUR input on how their programs are working – or not working – in your community. The future of federal economic development is in your hands!

COLLABORATE: There is no substitute for direct, personal contact. The Forum is specifically designed to maximize interaction between economic developers and Federal officials, ensuring lasting connections beyond the final session.

Mastering federal programs to benefit your community is no easy task. Attending the Federal Economic Development Forum is a vital component to any economic development strategy. Register today and take the first step toward making the federal government work for you!
