Even in the face of adversity, our community has shown resiliency and we are ready to make strong and confident strides toward a place where everyone can live happy healthy lives. No single person, business, or entity is responsible for creating a thriving economy.
 
Through strong partnerships and a shared strategic plan, we can move toward a community that is on a trajectory for growth--growth that is robust and enduring, and with the goal of creating PROSPERITY FOR ALL.
 
This virtual event will include keynote speakers, lightening talks, and breakout discussion groups. Most sessions will be recorded for registered attendees to view after the event. Please note, if you are registered, a link to join the event will be sent by Monday, October 26.
