First-Ever Business United Summit Ties Business Results with Community Impact

                        Partnering with local nonprofit organizations is always a win for the community, and it can also be a big win for your business. That’s why Heart of Florida United Way created the first ever Business United Summit — an event where local business leaders can learn how engaging with the nonprofit community can bolster your company’s brand, foster cross-generational employee engagement, expand your markets, refine corporate social responsibility goals and increase your ability to meet your employees’ needs. 

This don’t-miss event is ideal for C-Suite executives leading both small and large businesses. During this half-day experience, we will share the community’s most pressing needs and explore opportunities to improve your business outcomes by leaning into community engagement. The event will be hosted by facilitator and creative catalyst Bob Kodzis, with breakout sessions led by a who’s who of Central Florida business leaders — all of whom will share insights and strategies that will rock your business model. Break-out sessions will be led and supported by corporate leaders like Publix Super Markets, Gilbane Building Company, TD Bank, FAIRWINDS Suncoast Credit Union, and more.
