Welcome to CEO Boardroom, where we convene the region’s most distinguished business leaders for exclusive, intimate events.

Since leaders didn’t have a safe CEO-only place to meet, the CEO Boardroom was first organized to provide CEOs their first private space to connect and forge deep business relationships at restaurants and luxury boxes.

At CEO Boardroom™, we understand the unique challenges CEOs face. Our events provide unparalleled opportunities for CEOs to connect, share experiences, and build valuable relationships. Join us to access top speakers, brilliant minds, and unforgettable experiences.

 

A Place for CEOs to Connect

Our mission is simple: to give CEOs a trusted community where they can learn, grow, and connect with others who understand the unique challenges of leading a business. We offer intimate, enjoyable, and private settings that involve candor, camaraderie, great food and wine, and more. In short, these are amazing experiences that CEOs can’t find anywhere else.

The CEO Boardroom™ is Washington DC’s premier organization that connects and brings together top CEOs in a safe place to relax, unwind, and open up in an inspired, positive, encouraging, and collaborative environment.

Our goal is to improve a CEO’s vision and performance for themselves, their organization, and their community. We achieve this through exclusive events for CEOs and venues that provide privileged and targeted access to and with each other.

CEO Boardroom™ offers a range of private events, programs, consulting services, and training tailored for business executives and their organizations. We aim to bring CEOs together to build new and meaningful C-Suite relationships and strengthen existing ones.

 

What Makes CEO Boardroom Special?

CEO Boardroom is a safe place for CEOs of growing companies to engage in conversations that help solve business problems, develop collaborative opportunities, share market insights, and grow revenue. Here’s what sets us apart:

  • The region’s only CEO problem-solving forum focused solely on public sector contractors.
  • Great experiences featuring exceptional food and fine wines at exclusive five-star venues and the most sought-after sporting events.
  • The first private forum where CEOs always forge long-lasting business relationships in luxurious, vetted, and exclusive settings.
  • Mentorship from GovCon CEOs who have built, grown, and sold businesses.
  • A safe environment to find teaming opportunities that grow revenue.

Govcon Exchange: For CEOs in Government Contracting

Government contracting is a highly competitive industry, with competitors fighting for contracts and each other’s employees. In this atmosphere of negativity that leads to conflictual relationships and stressful competition, it’s very difficult to find reliable partners to team with and win contracts. CEO Boardroom strives to eliminate negativity by providing a safe environment that eliminates hostile competitors through its positive, inspiring, and collaborative design.

GovCon Exchange offers a targeted environment for CEOs and leaders within the government contracting community to collaborate on strategic initiatives, share best practices, and navigate the complexities of the government sector. This program enhances understanding, fosters innovation, and drives success in a highly regulated market.

Battling for new contracts, working to build better client relationships and find teaming partners, and strained for time, too many GovCon CEOs are missing out on a tremendous opportunity.  They need an exclusive, private setting to connect with their peers, learn, and gain insights that drive revenue growth.

CEO Boardroom GovCon Exchange™ was established to address the issues a busy, chief executive of a government contracting firm faces. Offering strategic invitation-only connections with like-minded and aligned teaming partners, GovCon Exchange provides direct connections to decision-makers, new contract vehicles, best practices, and market intelligence, and mentors CEOs who share how they built and sold their firms.
