Throughout its history, St. Louis has relied on strong leadership to navigate big decisions and move our region forward through times of transformation.

Hardin-Bartley, Affinia Healthcare President and CEO Dr. Kendra Holmes, and President and CEO of Cortex Innovation District Sam Fiorello, who will share how they are working to find solutions to some of St. Louis’s biggest challenges.
