SPONSORS & PARTNERS

We’re excited to invite you to join us as a sponsoring partner for the 3rd Annual 2026 Local Government Career Expo (LOGO) on August 29, 2026 at the McKimmon Center in Raleigh. 

LOGO is a statewide effort to strengthen the future of public service by connecting talented students and professionals with meaningful careers in local government. This high-energy event brings together employers, educators, and workforce champions who care about building strong communities across North Carolina. 

Our inaugural expo drew more than 40 employers and nearly 3,000 attendees eager to explore careers in public service. The momentum is growing — and we’re looking for partners who want to help shape what comes next. 

As a LOGO partner, your organization will: 

  • Align your brand with workforce development and community impact 
  • Connect with local government leaders and decision-makers 
  • Gain visibility through coordinated marketing and media outreach 
  • Play a direct role in strengthening the public sector talent pipeline 

Together, we can create meaningful pathways into local government careers and ensure our communities continue to thrive. 

We offer several partnership levels to meet your goals and budget, and we’d love to talk about how you can be part of this important initiative. 

For more information, please contact Alana Keegan at akeegan@centralpinesnc.gov or Beth Seidel at bseidel@centralpinesnc.gov. 

We hope you’ll join us.
