Where Innovation Reigns: 2024 Forbes Under 30 Summit Recap
October 1, 2024
The 2024 Forbes Under 30 Summit descended on Cincinnati September 22-25, which marks the second of three stops the globally recognized event will make in the Buckeye State over a three-year period. Last year’s Summit was hosted in Cleveland, and the event will make its way to Ohio’s capital city of Columbus in 2025. The Under 30 Summit attracts young leaders from across the globe, including the Forbes Under 30 Class of 2024 national and local Cincinnati listers. The event, presented by JobsOhio, was held at Cincinnati’s Andrew J. Brady Center and featured speakers across diverse industries, exclusive networking opportunities, and an inaugural Forbes event highlighting women leaders in the sports industry. The Summit had thousands of in-person attendees representing 44 states and 66 countries, and nearly 60 percent traveled to Cincinnati from out of state.
“We’ve had a great partnership with JobsOhio. We’ve been taking this event across the state. Last year was Cleveland, and next year is Columbus. It’s a chance for us to really go deep in these really fascinating cities where there’s so much economic dynamism and really interesting things going on.”
