Shaping the Future of EHS & ESG Together

Data, trends, and strategies will take center stage during this exclusive event. Together, we’ll spark meaningful discussions, shape business plans, and refine the VelocityEHS product roadmap—all with the goal of improving processes that benefit your workforce and the communities you serve.

Beyond the boardroom, we will immerse ourselves in the vibrant energy of Louisville! From the hidden charm of Pin & Proof, a speakeasy with bowling, cocktails, and great food, to the excitement of Fourth Street Live, we are in the city’s premier dining and entertainment hub. If you have time before or after the Summit, explore biking and walking paths along the Ohio River, or dive into the city’s rich bourbon heritage with distilleries and history woven into every corner of the hotel and surrounding area.

This is more than a conference—it’s an opportunity to collaborate, innovate, and experience the best of Louisville together. We can’t wait to see you there!
