Last year’s Business Summit brought together some of the Lehigh Valley’s brightest minds for a morning of ideas, strategy, and meaningful connections. From insightful conversations to actionable takeaways, the energy in the room made one thing clear: when our business community gathers, innovation follows.

Now it’s time to do it again.

Join us for the 2026 Lehigh Valley Business Summit on Thursday, April 30, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at DeSales University. This half-day experience is designed for leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals who want to stay ahead of the curve, strengthen their networks, and walk away with fresh perspectives they can put to work immediately.

Watch the highlights from last year and imagine yourself in the room this April.
