October 12-15, 2008

Join us for a three-day exploration of best practices in urban revitalization with Creative Class experts and enthusiasts.

Attendees will take part in exploring innovation in:

• Developing entrepreneurship & talent
• Creating a dynamic sense of place
• Encouraging diversity of thinking and of being
• Establishing green and sustainable communities

Who Should Attend?
