Strategic Budgeting Roundtable - September

​We're excited to bring you our Strategic Budgeting Roundtable, and hope you can join us for this timely topic.

Budget planning cycles often start the same way. Pressure to justify the budget, and the temptation to repeat last year's line items. Policymakers are rarely given more budget, but need to drive greater impact. The ecosystems pulling ahead aren't spending more — they're spending where growth is actually accelerating.

This session is designed for senior leaders and their teams who are heading into their next planning cycle and want a clear framework for making high-impact, budget-neutral decisions.

Who it’s for:

• ​Ecosystem planners and the teams who actually build the budget

• ​Agency and program leads

• ​Policy teams heading into their next planning cycle

​What we’ll cover:

• ​Policy levers most ecosystem budgets underuse

• ​How to weigh your budget against your ecosystem's phase and real momentum, including where AI-native startups are reshaping where growth is happening

• ​Global practices from ecosystems that continually punch above their weight

​Please feel free to share the invitation with relevant colleagues.

We look forward to seeing you there!
