Connect, collaborate and innovate at the Micropolitan Summit. Empowering small cities to drive big opportunities for growth and success.

As America approaches its 250th year, 1050 Forward’s Micropolitan Summit invites leaders from across Oklahoma to reflect on how small communities have shaped our nation—and how they’ll continue to lead its future.

This one-day gathering brings together civic innovators, business leaders, educators and community advocates to explore what it means to thrive in the next 250 years of American life. From volunteerism and service to economic vitality and infrastructure, the Summit celebrates the power of micropolitan communities to drive progress, connection and renewal.
