Innovation for Inclusion Summit: Harnessing Technology to Create More Equitable Cities
New information, communication, and transportation technologies have generated countless innovations in business and commerce that are reshaping economies in US cities and metropolitan areas. But we know little about how technological changes reinforce or reduce racial and economic inequalities.

The building of cross-border relationships has become a hallmark of the MLC Annual Meeting, where you have the chance to learn from and develop lasting bonds with legislative colleagues — not only from other states, but from the provinces that make up our North American heartland. The states and provinces of the Midwest share much more than a border. We have many common policy interests, as well as invaluable economic and cultural ties that bind us.
Convened as the focal point and culmination of its yearly activities, the Annual Meeting of the Southern Legislative Conference is the nation’s largest regional gathering of state legislators, legislative staff and government officials, and the premier public policy forum for Southern state legislatures.
