GovExec

GovExec is an American media and intelligence business serving the U.S. public sector. It traces its origins to Government Executive, a print magazine for federal managers and executives founded in 1969, and to the launch of GovExec.com in 1996, which carried the brand into digital publishing. The company describes its work in three parts: data that informs, media that connects, and marketing services that activate.

Its editorial output spans several distinct titles. Government Executive covers news and analysis for federal government managers. Nextgov/FCW reports on federal technology and IT policy and management. Defense One addresses the defense community. Route Fifty covers state and local government, and Washington Technology serves the government contracting and public sector technology market. Alongside these publications, GovExec produces data and marketing services for companies selling into the public sector.

Based in the United States, with a focus on Washington, D.C. and the federal government, the company reaches 3.3 million government influencers a month. Coverage areas run to public sector operations, defense, state and local government, government contracting and public sector technology. The stated aim of the business is to help the government ecosystem achieve its missions.
