The conference will focus on leadership and development across three immersive tracks:
Building a welcoming culture within the bike industry and community and having the tough conversations that get us there.
The post-pandemic reimagining of manufacturing and assembly based in the U.S. and fostering breakthrough innovation.
What it really means for our industry and the steps we need to take to create a greener and healthier future.
Towns are the heart of America, and there’s a new American town on the map. It’s a town with a big heart and even bigger ambition. A town where modern progress meets rich history, where the arts meet innovation and where companies meet communities. A town to visit, to see, to breathe and to discover. Visit Bentonville — a new American town.
