Please join us for the 6th Annual Iowa Counties Information Technology Conference Mid-Year Conference being held this year in Sioux City, Iowa at the Sioux City Convention Center. “The Technology Adventure” is this year’s conference theme, and we hope you will join us for an exciting expedition through the technology landscape. We are putting together a conference agenda that will help you meet fellow technology adventurers and discover hidden technology treasures.

We welcome all Iowa County IT/GIS staff, technology vendors/exhibitors, or anyone else interested in learning more about technology. We are especially encouraging County Supervisors, Auditors, Assessors, Recorders, Planning & Zoning staff and Treasurers to join us for a valuable learning opportunity, as well as a great time in Northwest Iowa. We are working hard to produce an event that will not only be professionally rewarding, but offer some great social activities, as well. The meeting will end on Friday, June 13.

Sessions will begin at 10:00 am on Wednesday, June 11 with registration starting at 8:30 am. The conference will include IT, GIS, Web, and Exhibitor tracks with presentations, short workshops, and discussion sessions. Included in your conference registration are:

  • Registration gifts
  • Door prizes at every break
  • Meals including our banquet dinner of Prime Rib or Chipotle Roasted Chicken
  • A great time with fellow Technology professionals

Any questions regarding registrations can tentatively be sent to Mark Castenson at Warren County.
