California Economic Summit 10/13/26 - 10/15/26

The California Economic Summit is a convening of regional and statewide leaders from business, community, government, philanthropy, labor, and more to catalyze a New California Economy.

This year's Summit comes at pivotal time for California.

Join them Tuesday, October 13 to Thursday, October 15, 2026 from 10:00AM to 12:30PM at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center, 300 E Ocean Blvd, Long Beach, CA 90802.

In the midst of an election season, the Summit offers a timely opportunity to bring leaders together around a shared, practical agenda for inclusive economic growth, resilience, and shared prosperity. CA FWD’s focus this year has been supporting leading gubernatorial candidates and legislators to help them deliver positive change from day one. This year’s Summit focuses directly on this work—whether through breakout sessions or plenaries, Summit attendees will have the opportunity to help shape this critical candidate education and help ensure a resilient, sustainable, and inclusive economy.
