The 67th Annual Governor’s Conference on Economic Development will be held from September 3 to 5, 2025, at the Hilton Branson Convention Center in Branson, Missouri. Organized by the Missouri Economic Development Council (MEDC), this year’s conference marks the first under Governor Mike Kehoe’s leadership.
The conference will explore interconnected strategies with an emphasis on public safety, economic development, agriculture, and education. Attendees can anticipate discussions on workforce development, career and technical education (CTE), and initiatives aimed at aligning educational programs with Missouri’s evolving economic needs. This focus aligns with Governor Kehoe’s “Workforce of the Future Challenge,” which emphasizes enhancing CTE delivery systems and increasing awareness of career pathways among students and employers.
The event offers opportunities for networking, showcasing products or services, and contributing to the success of this event.
