EPIC Summer Convening 2026

Join us for an inspiring gathering of visionaries, innovators, and changemakers across the Employer Provided Innovation Challenges (EPIC) network. This year, we're uniting our dedicated on-the-ground partners, forward-thinking employer collaborators, educational allies, champions, challenge-winning students, and the funders who make it all possible to celebrate another remarkable year of EPIC. As we look back on a year of bold progress and transformative initiatives, this convening is more than a celebration—it's a chance to showcase how EPIC and the powerful collaboration behind it continue to redefine the bridge between business innovation and workforce development, turning shared vision into actionable strategies that strengthen the workforce of tomorrow. The conference focuses on Connecting Students to Employers Through Work-Based Learning.
