Every year, the sharpest minds in banking converge at NEXT Forum to challenge assumptions and gain an edge on what's next. The invitation-only format creates candid conversations, real access, and connections you will not find anywhere else.
NEXT Forum is intentionally intimate, giving attendees real access to the industry professionals they usually only hear on stage. Instead of sitting through passive panels, you'll get candid conversations, real-time advice, and genuine networking in a fun, high-energy setting.
Kick off with a networking reception — food, drinks, and your first chance to connect with the room's most influential banking professionals in a relaxed setting.
Panel discussions on M&A, technology, compensation, talent acquisition, and growth strategies — led by the executives living these decisions right now.
Cap the forum with cocktails and appetizers — and the relationships you'll be building on for years to come.
NEXT Forum brings together the executives who are actively shaping the future of community banking. Expect candid conversations with decision-makers who hire talent, allocate capital, drive strategy, and influence the market.
