BRIDGE25: FORWARD
There has perhaps never been a more important time for us to come together as a resolute community committed to building a more inclusive industry. While DEI has become politicized, misrepresented and overstated, the practice of inclusion remains transformational to business growth. And those companies that understand this will future proof their businesses for years to come.
With an extraordinary NPS score of over 90 for 2 years in a row, this 2 ½ day retreat immerses Chief Diversity Officers, CMOs, CEOs and other senior leaders in a unique environment built to deliver actionable insights and foster data-driven solutions to operationalize inclusion across the workplace, workforce and marketplace and protect it from unfounded attacks.
BRIDGE25: FORWARD will center around data-driven best practices and business capabilities needed to ensure that brands tap into their growth markets with robust strategies on how they see, serve and show up in the marketplace.
Our commitment is that BRIDGE25: FORWARD will be unapologetically indelible, determined and audacious as we bring together an incredible lineup of speakers, actionable content, close friends and partners and immersive cultural experiences all in one place!
And, together with our second class of Rising Stars, we will define the future for the next generation, who are more committed than ever to social causes, racial justice and an expectation that it is the role of companies to make the world a better place.
