About this Event
On February 24, 2026, the beautiful St. Vrain Event Center in Downtown Longmont will host 200 of the region’s most influential business owners, investors, and community leaders for a transformative morning focused on the future of Longmont’s economy.
This year’s Advance Longmont Economic Summit explores the power of storytelling as a catalyst for economic development, highlighting how narrative, data, and place-based strategy come together to shape thriving communities.
We’re honored to welcome an exceptional lineup of keynote speakers:
Arielle Brachfeld, Interim Film Commissioner for the State of Colorado
Kate Watkins, Colorado State Demographer
Phyllis Resnick, Lead Economist and Executive Director of the Colorado Futures Center
Together, they will offer rare insight into Colorado’s economic landscape, population trends, and the growing intersection of film, creativity, and business development.
With the Sundance Film Festival projected to enter our regional ecosystem in 2027, now is the moment for Longmont’s business community to step forward, shape our identity, and seize the opportunity to elevate our presence on a national stage.
Whether you’re an industry leader, investor, entrepreneur, or engaged community partner, the 2026 Advance Longmont Economic Summit promises inspiration, actionable insights, and the connections that move Longmont forward.
Be part of the story. Be part of the momentum. Be part of what’s next for Longmont. #LongmontEconomicDevelopmentPartnership
