GAIN Power and our partner organizations are organizing a  first-of-its-kind virtual program dedicated to linking leading Democratic and progressive political consulting firms, technology companies, and vendors with the staff, leaders, and other decision-makers at party committees, candidate campaigns, ballot initiatives, PACs, Union, and progressive advocacy groups. 

The virtual event will have interactive panel discussions, a trade show-style expo where exhibitors have virtual booths,  and an individual-level networking space to view and meet individual people.

The expo will allow attendees to network with each other, learn about the latest trends and technologies in the political consulting industry, and hear from experts on various topics.

The expo is for anyone interested in learning about political consulting firms, tech companies, and other product and service providers working for Democratic and Progressive organizations. This includes campaigns, PACs, Unions, party committees, advocacy organizations, and ballot measure campaigns. If you’re running for office, managing a campaign, or working for a nonprofit or PAC that will do voter contact in 2024 this event is for you. It’s a special opportunity to look at products, services, and as importantly the teams behind those who are responsible for voter communications, fundraising, organizing volunteers, design and content creation, and so much more.

The event app will open on January 11 for networking and marketing purposes. Program panels will take place on Jan 17 & 18th. We’ll have additional special events in the app throughout the year and keep the expo open through the 2024 elections.

The expo will cover a variety of topics, including:

• How to find, hire, and manage consultants. 
• What services exist, and how do you decide what you need?
• What is it like to work at these companies? 
• The latest trends and technologies in the political consulting industry focused on: 
  • Campaign management
  • Fundraising
  • Communications
  • Organizing
  • Voter engagement
  • Data Analytics
  • And more!
