Our 2025 IEDC Leadership Summit in Washington D.C. is officially in the books, and what an incredible journey it was! From powerful plenaries to hands-on workshops, we witnessed leadership in action at every level. Powerful moments resonated throughout the Summit: Bruce Katz challenged us that "it's on us to reinvent the system," while Ron Frierson from Amazon uplifted our purpose—"I hope everyone realizes how noble an industry this is...our purpose is to improve people's lives. You're creating opportunities for people to feed their families, to grow their community." We celebrated outstanding achievement at our Industry Leaders Awards reception, where professionals were recognized for their contributions to our field across nine categories. Matthew Chase's compelling insight that "whatever you care about, you better advocate because nothing is sacred" reinforced why our gathering in DC wasn't just symbolic—it was strategic.
