NASCIO Members Give Back During NASCIO 2023 Midyear Conference
LEXINGTON, Ky., Tuesday, May 16, 2023 — The National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO) donated over $35,900 to City Gate as part of the association’s Give Back program. City Gate is a Washington, DC-area nonprofit working to engage and empower at-risk youth and families impacted by poverty. Their STEAM-focused curriculum provides children with hands on learning, critical thinking skills and future career opportunities. NASCIO’s 2023 Midyear Conference was held in the DC area earlier this month.
Donations were collected during the NASCIO 2023 Midyear Conference and NASCIO state, corporate and nonprofit members donated through individual contributions. NASCIO corporate members Carahsoft Technology Corp., Esri, Kyndryl, Lenovo US, Lookout and Tyler Technologies sponsored this year’s Give Back Program and contributed to the donation total.

What is the dress code?
NASCIO conferences are business casual. However, attendee attire ranges from business causal to business formal. Evening events are also business casual; if specific attire is appropriate, attendees will be notified.

Where can I find a list of attendees?
All registered attendees will have access to the NASCIO Event Hub (web & mobile app), which will house a real-time roster of all attendees. Prior to conference, the Hub is the only way to access this information (exception for sponsors).
After conference, all attendees will receive a PDF roster of those individuals who attended the conference.
How many attendees can a member organization register?
- Corporate Members: max of 3 representatives (only exception is those that purchase conference sponsorship packages; the number of registrations permitted for sponsors are based on sponsorship level purchased)
- Nonprofit/Academic/Government (non-state) Members: max of 2 representatives

Can we purchase additional registrations?
No, registrations are limited by member type as outlined above

Do you accept cancellations or substitutions?
Substitutions are always complimentary; a registered attendee may designate someone within the same company to take their spot. Substitutions must be made online HERE by April 24; after this date substitutions must be made onsite.
If a registered attendee must cancel, a refund (minus a $200 administrative fee) will be issued if written notice is provided by April 24. No refunds are given for cancellations made after registrations closes (April 24) or for no-shows.

How can my company sponsor the conference?
Sponsorship registration will open February 8 at noon Eastern. Opportunities are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please review sponsorship levels, benefits and conditions.
Can my company hold an event (meeting, reception, etc.) during the conference?
Yes, provided there is a 30-minute buffer from the beginning or conclusion of NASCIO’s event and the start time of your event. No events may be held in the morning.

No marketing materials may be distributed at NASCIO conferences (event venue or Event Hub) except approved sponsor materials.
Gifts or other amenities may not be sent to the hotel room of any public sector attendee.
