Civic Summit
The Civic Summit is an annual event that brings together civic leaders and dedicated community members across Boston who are passionate about making an impact in their communities.
Our goal is to establish meaningful connections that go beyond the boundaries of neighborhoods and organizations. Through carefully curated workshops, attendees will gain practical insights and strategies to implement in their respective spheres of influence, driving tangible progress.
Through panel discussions and fireside chats with leaders and experts from different fields, we aim to inspire residents. These conversations, combined with various networking opportunities among attendees, are designed to spark new ideas and creative solutions for challenges in our communities. The Civic Summit is a space to share ideas and drive change together.
