The CEO Retreat, Presented by RSM US LLP

Unlock unparalleled insights and connect with fellow Kansas City tech leaders while enjoying world-class accommodations, with all-inclusive meals, drinks, and activities at your fingertips.

The CEO Retreat, presented by RSM US LLP, is KC Tech Council’s most anticipated gathering — designed for candid conversations and real perspective among the region’s top tech executives.

This year’s theme centers on growth hacking for tech leaders across leadership, operations, and strategy. Sessions will explore how CEOs are operationalizing AI in their own leadership and decision-making, scaling tech companies without losing momentum, why Kansas City continues to be a compelling place to found, grow, scale, and relocate tech businesses, and what the economic outlook for 2026–2027 means for growth-minded executives.

Intentional time is built into the agenda for meaningful networking and peer-to-peer relationship building — creating space for honest dialogue, strategic clarity, and connections that extend well beyond the retreat.
