Upcoming Events

As you have probably noticed, GovNews has always featured an Events section.

This section has showcased a wide variety of conferences and events that are relevant to the public sector, and this particular space on the site has been reserved as a feed from the Events page.

However, due to some errors that have routinely occurred when updating software that powers this part of the website, we’ve decided to take the Events down until we can arrange for a more stable backend system.

Stay tuned, and don’t forget to subscribe!
