Test

For the last quarter-century, the CEO Breakfast Series has brought top business leaders to campus and nearby venues, to share candid insights with others in the business community. Drawn from companies regional, national and global in reach, these leaders have shared how they’ve steered their companies successfully through challenging times and a changing business climate.

To date, the series has featured nearly 200 presenters and more than 12,000 attendees. Representing industries including healthcare, manufacturing, finance, tech and entrepreneurship, our presenters have addressed such issues as talent, change management, strategy development, culture and succession management.

As we celebrate our 25th anniversary, we’re proud to offer another exceptional slate of speakers, two of whom will present at new locations (see listings below). The CEO Breakfast Series is an exceptional opportunity not only to gain perspective on important issues, but to network with others who are helping to shape the region’s economy. We hope you’ll join us!
