Their vision was to create a safe space for business leaders to exchange ideas, forge connections, and build new relationships. Impact is more personal and welcoming than a typical business conference.  Most of our attendees join us year after year to learn and share experiences (including amazing food and drink and fun activities) with other fellow business leaders.   ### Register now to join us at Impact on May 14th-15th, 2026 [SECURE YOUR SEAT TODAY!](https://cvent.me/89oZrP) ## Our Sponsors Make It Happen!
