About e.Republic
e.Republic’s story has been over thirty-eight years in the making. This organization grew out of an innovative idea in 1983 into the market-leading company it is today – an indispensable partner helping state and local government manage and position themselves for the future.
The company launched the inaugural Government Technology Conference (GTC) in May of 1987 to rave success followed quickly by the addition of Government Technology magazine in November of that year. And with it, the creation of the nationwide state and local gov tech market. The company added GTCs in Texas and New York and by 1993 had expanded to include smaller conferences in other state capitals. 1998 was a particularly notable year for expansion with the addition of the Center for Digital Government (CDG), the Government Technology Navigator sales tool and an education magazine, Converge. This was followed by the launch of the Center for Digital Education (CDE) and Education Technology Navigator in 2000. The corporate name was changed to e.Republic around this time to align with a commitment to the public sector and the evolving dot-gov world taking shape in the new century.
In 2009, e.Republic acquired Governing magazine from Congressional Quarterly. Governing covered politics, policy and management for state and local government leaders and was recognized as the most credible and authoritative voice in its field. e.Republic later acquired the regional tech business website Techwire in 2014 and relaunched it as a subscription-based news and business intelligence service focused on the nexus of technology and government policy in California.
2014 also saw the launch of two other company initiatives--e.Republic Labs and e.Republic Ventures. Designed to link state and local government to a new generation of innovative civic-tech solutions, e.Republic Labs serves as a catalyst and connector for the development, deployment and scalability of a new generation of government and civic technologies. e.Republic Ventures provides mentorship and capital for a select number of early-stage companies to accelerate their entry into the public sector market.
In 2016, Government Technology launched GovTech 100, a listing of the leading 100 companies focused on, making a difference in, and selling to state and local government agencies across the United States.
In 2020 a re-launch of Governing took place and Governing: The Future of States and Localities now takes on the question of what state and local government looks like in a world of rapid change. The new Governing is a resource for elected and appointed officials and other public leaders who are looking for smart insights and a forum to better understand and manage through this era of change.
With the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring of 2020, e.Republic pivoted to provide all events, including the market-leading Digital Government Summits, in a virtual format. The successful pivot to virtual events proved once again how resilient the team at e.Republic is and how their passion to help governments shined through. Thousands of government attendees attended the 2020 events engaging with partners and gaining the knowledge they need to be successful.
2021 brought a new CEO and leadership team to the helm. Smart, innovative thinking with a passion for making government better will drive exponential expansion throughout this decade. With nearly 200 employees in California and throughout the United States, e.Republic is a unique company redefining the role of media at the intersection of innovation and public service.

Established in 1984, e.Republic is the nation’s only media and research company focused exclusively on state and local government. Led by Dennis McKenna, media entrepreneur and co-founder, our award-winning publications, websites, more than 150 annual events and highly respected research operations are acknowledged as setting the gold standard in their respective fields. Our work has been cited in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Time, The Washington Post and USA Today.
In 1985, McKenna launched California County magazine in partnership with the California State Association of Counties. Early to recognize the impact new digital technologies would have on the public sector, in 1987 Dennis launched Government Technology, the first national magazine covering information technology in state and local government.
Seeing the need for stronger analysis and research to support public sector innovation, e.Republic launched the Center for Digital Government and Center for Digital Education—the first-of-their-kind research and business intelligence advisory institutes focused exclusively on state and local government and education. The Centers are home to the widely cited Digital States Survey and Digital Government Navigator, a subscription-based market intelligence tool for companies targeting public sector business.
In 2009, e.Republic acquired Governing from Congressional Quarterly. Governing covers politics, policy and management for state and local government leaders. Recognized as the most credible and authoritative voice in its field, Governing provides non-partisan news, insight and analysis on budget and finance; transportation and infrastructure; workforce and economic development; health and human services and more.

In the summer of 2019, we discontinued Governing as it has been known since its inception in 1987, including closing the print magazine. As this chapter closed however, we heard from many of our readers and began a conversation around what role a reconstituted Governing might effectively play in the future. With this came a new focus.
