The Hope Summit

In 2026, The Hope Summit will explore how, to create vibrant communities, we must redefine our understanding of who and what is part of a community.The need for community has never been stronger. Communities around the world are rebuilding networks of care and resilience, reconnecting people with themselves, their neighbors, the institutions that seek to serve them, and the ecosystems that support and sustain them.We invite leaders and solutions practitioners from all walks of life, disciplines, and stages of their professional journey to join us in Charleston from October 1st to 4th to cultivate ideas, accelerate solutions, and inspire hope through the multi-faceted and intersectional ways creating vibrant communities can shape the future of our communities and of our planet.To create vibrant communities, we need a vibrant hybrid conference with virtual access, a new user experience portal for networking and visit planning, and an interactive conference program featuring speakers, panels, workshops, working groups, impact screenings, morning coffee socials, and evening receptions. Join in person or virtually from anywhere in the world. Build community before, during, and after the conference with your fellow participants here on this virtual summit portal.
