This two-day forum brings together private- and public-sector professionals to share resources and ideas focused on coastal development challenges and community resilience. The event runs May 13–14, 2026 and includes optional mobile tours on Day 1 (with additional registration required), followed by a welcome reception and dine-arounds. Day 2 features a registration and networking breakfast, two general sessions (“Coastal Resilience in Practice” and “Regional Responses to Sea-Level Rise”), a networking lunch, breakout sessions, and a closing session. The event listing outlines what attendees can expect from the program, including practical information, case studies, and resources related to resilient projects and processes; discussion of how coastal issues can affect inland economies and communities; and examples of solutions and leadership in resilience policymaking and development that coastal and “coastal-like” communities face.
