#NCTECHLeadership

An annual favorite, the Leadership Summit is hosted by NC TECH along with its Board of Directors and Advisors. Geared towards executives, this summit provides the opportunity to hear from some of the tech sector’s influential leaders on variety of topics, from talent to transformation, through both structured discussions and more informal networking and engagement opportunities. Attendance is capped at 200. 

2023 Theme Announced - Innovation + Resilience

Innovation and resilience must find a way to co-exist. While innovation is disruptive by nature, resilience is the capacity to maintain stability when disrupted and is essential calm the rough waters as change is taking place. At this year’s Leadership Summit, we will explore how innovation and resilience must work together to strengthen companies, culture and the bottom line.
