Put Your Organization Front & Center – Give Remarks at a Session or Meeting at #MACoCon

Looking for a meaningful way to connect with Maryland’s county leaders? Consider sponsoring one of MACo’s educational sessions or affiliate meetings at the 2026 Summer Conference.

Educational session and affiliate meeting sponsorships include a speaking engagement for the sponsor’s representative – 2 minutes of remarks at the beginning of the session or meeting.

These sponsorships offer a unique opportunity to introduce your organization to an engaged audience of county officials, agency leaders, and state decision-makers before some of the conference’s most anticipated discussions.

Whether you’re looking to build brand recognition, strengthen existing relationships, or showcase your organization’s expertise, session sponsorships put you in front of the people shaping county government across Maryland.
