What is a Big Ideas Raleigh Meetup?

The Meetup is a dynamic gathering to spark collaboration, innovation, and strategic planning for Raleigh's growth. Organized by the Office of Strategy and Innovation, these sessions bring together a diverse mix of community members, businesses, organizations, stakeholders, and local government representatives.

To cultivate meaningful connections and ignite idea exchanges. Together, we'll dive into discussions on City initiatives and explore groundbreaking solutions to Raleigh's most pressing challenges. Each Meetup will cover a topic related to the City's strategic plan. Get excited for conversations about the arts, sustainability, business development, affordable housing and more!
