PRESENTED BY:

Presented by Community Trust Bank, the 2023 Regional Summit on November 29 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Hyatt Regency Lexington (401 W. High Street) will provide the opportunity for influential business, community, and local government leaders within our nine-county economic development region to come together and learn about how we can make the Greater Lexington Bluegrass Region more economically competitive for jobs and talent.  In a post pandemic world where businesses and people can live and work from almost anywhere, building a stronger region has never been more important.  
During this full-day event, leaders will hear from Ted Abernathy with Economic Leadership about the annual economic update for the region, how our region is comparing to other competitor metros and trends for workforce and economic development.  Leaders will also be engaged in sessions focused on the key “action items” to building a more competitive region. 
 
Some of the topics include:

  • ​Learning about the region’s opportunities for job growth with existing and emerging sectors 
  • Introduction to new regional brand identity, and talent marking attraction strategy 
  • Advocating for policy changes to improve competitiveness, including an update on regional housing affordability and inventory.  

Through this event, businesses and community leaders will better understand regional issues, and be engaged in solutions to build a more competitive region! The cost to attend is $199 per person. If you are interested in being involved in any of the action items outlined in the Regional Competitiveness Plan, contact Andi Johnson.
