Lunch & Connection

Take a moment to pause, refuel, and reconnect during our conference lunch—generously sponsored by one of our incredible partners and catered by Biltmore 67.

This is a time to relax, build connections, and continue weaving your story thread alongside fellow attendees. As lunch comes to a close, be inspired by featured videos highlighting our Innovator of the Year nominees—powerful stories of impact, leadership, and transformation across our region.
Enjoy the moment. Share your story. Be inspired by the stories unfolding around you.
