The Annual Forum brings the community together to learn about DFC’s work, hear from national experts, and work collaboratively to start designing a pathway towards creating an economically equitable city and region.
We invite you to join 300+ visionary leaders for a powerful day of ideas, action, and connection at DFC’s freshly branded Future City Forum, our signature annual in-person event. As DFC celebrates its 10th anniversary, this forum will be a space to come together and spark bold solutions for Detroit for the next 10 years. This year’s event will feature:

In addition to this year’s event, join us the night before the forum at the Pre-Event Reception for a special ticketed event marking a decade of DFC’s impact and continued work to create a thriving and resilient Detroit. This paid ticket event will include:
