Internal Study Mission

Internal Study Mission

Our annual Internal Study Mission (ISM) is a full day of immersive experience for community and business leaders, young professionals, and small business owners to connect, explore and learn more about the Sacramento region. This event allows attendees to discover our most valuable assets, biggest opportunities, and most pressing issues in Sacramento and takeaway new learnings to use it for their work moving forward.

Each year, our carefully curated tours, panel discussions, and guest speakers cover a variety of impactful topics. You’ll have the opportunity to look through the lens of how the Sacramento region can come together to create a sustainable, more inclusive economy and continue to push the needle forward.
