DELTA FEST 2025 planted seeds, built connections, and activated a movement toward prosperity.

Overwhelmingly positive.

Participants called the presentations powerful, the questions sharp, and the engagement electric.

"A big conference with perfect opportunities for intimacy. I know it’s going to grow so big—I don’t want to lose this.”

“You could just walk up to a mayor, a speaker, or a leader and have a real conversation.”

“And Rita Brent is just the icing on the cake!! Love her humor and way of moving us along to the next event."
