Attendees gain specific examples of how businesses are helping solve critical societal challenges and discover partnership opportunities to advance the important work you’re leading in communities.
We also reveal the winners of our annual Citizens Awards—nine organizations that are utilizing their unique talent, resources, and expertise to improve communities. Businesses, local chambers of commerce, and trade associations can apply now through June 20, 2025.
