On October 3, 2019 the City of Highland Park welcomed local and regional business leaders, entrepreneurs and government officials at the seventh annual Business Summit.

Each year the Summit features expert voices on topics to inspire and educate business leaders with new tools, strategies, and best practices to bring back to their companies, such as building your brand, creating a strong workforce, marketing, getting up to speed on social media, and business growth strategies. With an emphasis on dynamic networking opportunities, each event combines essential business tips with opportunities to share your own story with fellow business owners and across industries, along with breakout deep dive roundtable discussions on diverse topics with City Officials, members of the City Council and Business & Economic Development Advisory Group.

This year's keynote speaker Jodi Coplan, discussed "The Future of Work." City officials provided an update on the City’s business development initiatives, and attendees provided valuable feedback to help improve business processes.
