Northern Colorado is one of the state’s most vibrant and livable areas. It is also one of the fastest growing parts of Colorado. The Regional Issues Summit is a forum that will bring attention to some of the larger issues facing Northern Colorado. The half-day program will feature expert presentations, panel conversations and participant reactions. Business, civic, education and government leaders are invited to attend to help identify possible solutions to the area challenges. Key topics for the Issues Summit include: North I-25, Workforce Trends and Water, Energy and Education.

The business community is also invited to extend their day at the Embassy Suites and to join Leadership Northern Colorado for their kick off event starting at noon. Regionalism is becoming a central issue for the area. Community members are invited to learn about this important topic and to meet the 2015 Leadership Northern Colorado class.

More than 200 business professionals and community leaders are expected at the Regional Issues Summit and the Leadership Northern Colorado Kick Off.
