INVITATION TO SPONSOR Currently in its eighth year, the North Carolina CEO Forum is an invitation-only leadership event that welcomes 400 senior business, government and non-profit leaders who are committed to helping North Carolina grow jobs and build the state s presence on the national and international scene. We re planning the 2017 NC CEO Forum on the heels of our most recent event with Keynotes Arianna Huffington of the Huffington Post and General Keith Alexander, retired head of US Cyber Command and NSA. The theme for the 2017 NC CEO Forum is Innovation and Leadership in Healthcare. This year s event is dedicated to the dynamic business and innovations of healthcare. Healthcare touches all of our lives and is rapidly changing as new innovations, research, and breakthrough treatments transform the industry. Regardless of whether you live in the world of healthcare, this forum is relevant to executives and leaders from all industries. Our executive speakers will share their lessons learned through story-telling and will provide you with take-aways to apply to your business. We expect this to be a sell-out event attracting healthcare leaders and business executives from across the state. PLEASE JOIN US This year s program will be held at North Ridge Country Club in Raleigh on February 2 nd 3 rd. The Forum will begin on Thursday, February 2 nd with a networking lunch, followed by a fantastic lineup of speakers and Forum Talk presentations by leaders in healthcare. The event will resume on Friday, February 3 rd with a VIP breakfast, followed by executive presentations and ending with lunch and a possible keynote speaker. Once again this year, we ll host an invitation-only VIP reception and dinner Thursday night at Sullivan s Steakhouse in Raleigh and, as always, we ll give back by donating event profits to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Eastern North Carolina and to Teen Cancer America.
