The health and safety of our attendees is our top priority. Working closely with our partners at Disney, we have been tracking the latest weather developments within the Gulf.  

At this current moment, Tropical Storm Milton is projected to develop into a Category 3 hurricane, which is a powerful and dangerous storm. After careful consideration, and out of an abundance of caution, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the in-person component of this year’s Workplace Summit.

TALENT ON THE MOVE

For the past two decades, the LGBTQ+ movement has made significant advancements in equality, inclusion, and belonging in nearly all aspects of society and culture. Today, that progress is being challenged with pervasive intensity.  
Since 2015, anti-LGBTQ+ legislation has been on the rise. 2023 set an all-time record, which 2024 is well on pace to surpass with 475 pieces of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation already introduced in US state legislatures. These bills have devastating impacts on LGBTQ+ people, their families, their workplaces, and their communities.
