This event supports our state’s foundation of innovation, entrepreneurship and world-class workforce by promoting connections between the state’s employers, policy experts and communities. Through the connections between these groups, the 2023 Policy Summit allows you to contribute to the innovation, entrepreneurship and creativity that is the foundation of our state’s business community.
