Join your peers in Jackson Hole for an Unmatched CEO experience.
With tariffs (and threats of tariffs), an uncertain tax outlook, and volatile economic forecasts driving national news, the CEO Summit is the only event for Presidents and CEOs to learn more about and address these challenges, and many more.
It is a rare opportunity to gain valuable insights, hear comprehensive perspectives, and exchange best practices with fellow CEOs who are tackling similar issues.
Plus, spouses and significant others are not only invited, but encouraged to attend! The breathtaking scenery of Jackson Hole is sure to inspire, while our networking and social activities aim to showcase the area's natural beauty. Guests are invited to all dinners and social activities, as well as a special excursion during Monday's general sessions and roundtable discussions.
Each year, keynote speakers are selected from the top minds in business, politics, and policy to help CEOs lead with clarity, confidence, and strategic foresight. Below are just two examples of the speakers and content you can expect at the 2025 CEO Summit:
Ron Insana, CNBC Senior Analyst and Trailblazing Financial Journalist
A pioneer in financial journalism, Ron Insana brings unmatched insight into markets and macroeconomic trends.
His keynote will explore the economic outlook in the context of President Trump’s second term—examining the tension between populist politics and real-world policy. What lies ahead for markets, sectors, and regions? Where are the opportunities, and where are the risks? You’ll leave with a sharper lens on what may shape your business for years to come.
Marty Roesch, Cybersecurity Visionary & Tech Founder
Only a handful of people can truly claim to have contributed something that was adopted on a global scale and has impacted almost every business and household connected to the internet.
As the creator of one of the most widely adopted intrusion open-source detection systems in the world, Marty Roesch revolutionized cybersecurity. The company he founded, Sourcefire, was later acquired by Cisco for over $2.7 billion, and his innovations continue to be used worldwide.
In his keynote, Roesch will explore how AI and cybersecurity are reshaping the business landscape at unprecedented speed—and why you must act now to secure your company’s future. His latest venture, Netography, is redefining network security for today’s fragmented, cloud-based world.
