  • Inspiring keynote presentations from thought leaders shaping the future of rural prosperity.

  • Local and regional success spotlights highlighting innovative projects driving community growth.

  • Resource panels with state and regional experts.

  • Networking opportunities to connect with peers, partners, and new collaborators.

To make the day even better, a free lunch will be provided for all attendees.
