In the two years since our last Power of Place Summit, Rhode Island has experienced some very positive developments. Our economy is stronger, cranes are once again on the downtown skyline, our quality of place is the subject of numerous magazine articles and new companies and industries are choosing our state as a place to locate, develop talent and grow.
Rhode Island’s federal, state and local elected leaders, in partnership with Grow Smart RI and other private and public community stakeholders, have played an important role in shaping a quality of place that’s attracting people and business. But, while the revitalization momentum of our Capital City is impressive, we must redouble our efforts to accelerate the revitalization of our other urban and town centers from Woonsocket to Westerly.
That’s why we invite you to join with 500 business, civic and elected leaders, development and real estate professionals, architects, builders, farmers, conservationists and policy experts from across the region to learn from one another what’s working when it comes to shaping places that thrive.
Grow Smart RI's 2018 Power of Place Summit features:
- Keynote speech by The Atlantic correspondant James Fallows
- Networking opportunities
- 16 workshops, presentations, and panels
- 2018 Smart Growth Award Winners presentation
- Exhibitor hall
* Lunch included.
** Early bird rates last until March 5th.
