Ignite Summit

The 4th annual Ignite Summit is back with an innovative new approach. We’re dividing the room using the four interconnected drivers of economic development:

• Business & Innovation
• Government & Policy
• Community & Place
• People & Talent.

Pick one or explore them all! Throughout the day our expert speakers in each section of the room will take you through a thoughtful journey - exploring the unique challenges, obstacles, and opportunities for growth within each pillar. You'll leave inspired, empowered, and filled with bold new ideas to drive economic growth in our region.

Choose Your Own Conference Experience

Rather than choosing one room for the day, participants can move freely between discussions, tuning into the sessions most relevant to them while remaining immersed in the energy of a shared conference experience.
