The heart of this year’s work is carried by the 2025 Organizing Board—a collective of thinkers, doers, and dreamers committed to shaping an experience that reflects the power and possibility of our community. Together, this group brings a balance of expertise, lived experience, and bold imagination to guide our efforts.

From curating ideas and voices that deserve the stage, to building the infrastructure that makes the event possible, the Organizing Board ensures that every detail reflects our values of equity, creativity, and connection. Each member offers a unique perspective, but together they share one vision: to create a platform that sparks dialogue, challenges assumptions, and inspires lasting change.

Get to know the individuals behind the work—their stories, their passions, and the leadership they bring to making 2025 extraordinary.
