Driving Innovation
October 15 -18, 2026
Detroit, MI
One of the world's largest institutions dedicated to African American history and culture, the Wright Museum is a powerful and intentional setting for a conference rooted in community, legacy, and collective action.
Located along the Detroit Riverwalk in the heart of downtown, the Detroit Marriott at the Renaissance Center places you steps away from everything the city has to offer — with contemporary guestrooms, stunning river and skyline views, and world-class amenities to keep you comfortable and energized throughout the conference.
