The NextGen Government Training Virtual Summit was created to bring together like‑minded, career‑focused public servants. Since 2015, GovLoop has hosted the Summit with one mission: to support federal, state, and local government employees as they grow in their careers. From day one, our goal has been to build an event that meets government employees wherever they are on their professional journey.
What began as a 400‑person, in‑person conference in Washington, D.C., has evolved into a fully virtual event—now drawing more than 2,000 registrants for the past three years. Moving online has allowed us to make the Summit more affordable (free!), more flexible, and more accessible to public servants across the country.
Our speaker lineup brings together experts from throughout the government community. Past keynote speakers have included first ladies, mayors, members of Congress, CISOs, CTOs, and other inspiring leaders. We’ve also welcomed career coaches, leadership experts, authors, and professional speakers to guide attendees through hundreds of skill‑building sessions.
Most importantly, NextGen is a place for public servants to connect with one another. The virtual format makes it easy to network, collaborate, and learn from peers who share a commitment to public service.
The entire team at GovLoop works year-round to make the NextGen Summits as valuable to you, the attendee, as possible. We have a deep appreciation for public service and are here to support your government career every step of the way.
