DESCRIPTION:On October 8\, 2026\, the Greater Baltimore Committee will convene more than 500 business\, government\, nonprofit\, education\, and civic leaders at Merriweather Post Pavilion for the 2026 GBC Annual Meeting: Bold.

This is where connections become collaboration\, collaboration becomes action\, and action creates lasting regional impact. \nBecause when we compete as one region\, we win as one region. Bold. Regional. Connected. \nWhat to Expect:\n\nAn engaging mainstage program featuring regional leaders who will share thought-provoking insights on the forces reshaping the Baltimore Regional economy and the strategies positioning the region to compete and win.\nDynamic storytelling that highlights “regionalism at work” across industries\, institutions\, and communities—showcasing how alignment is driving investment\, innovation\, and growth.\nRecognition moments that celebrate organizations and leaders advancing a more connected\, competitive\, and opportunity-rich Baltimore Region.\nA high-energy networking experience at Merriweather Post Pavilion\, where attendees can build relationships across sectors\, jurisdictions\, and industries in a setting that reflects the region’s creativity and momentum.\nShared experiences that move beyond traditional programming to create memorable “wow” moments and deepen commitment to a regional vision for success.\n\nWhy Attend:\n\nConnect with influential leaders from business\, government\, education\, nonprofit\, and civic sectors who are shaping the region’s economic future—and expand your network beyond typical city\, county\, or industry silos.\nGain strategic insight into the ideas\, partnerships\, and investments driving workforce development\, innovation\, and business growth across the Greater Baltimore Region.\nHelp shape and align around a shared regional vision at a time when connection alone is not enough\, and bold\, collective action is required to compete in a global economy.\nDemonstrate your organization’s commitment to regional collaboration\, inclusive economic opportunity\, and long-term prosperity for the Baltimore Region.\nBe part of the next chapter of GBC leadership and regional momentum as new Board leadership is introduced and a renewed call to be Bold.
