Agenda
All times are eastern. Agenda is subject to change.
Join your Academy friends and colleagues for an expert keynote on what’s happening in D.C. and the broader political environment from financial services industry and political analysis expert Jeff Bush, principal of the nonpartisan Washington Update.
A panel featuring current and incoming vice presidents of the Academy’s six practice councils, moderated by incoming Academy President Tricia Matson, will offer insights on the key initiatives and 2026 priorities that are most top of mind in D.C. as well as in the states. Panelists will offer everyone a sneak peek at the Academy’s priorities in 2026 and beyond, including:
- Publications the practice areas anticipate in the months ahead;
- Webinars and other events being planned in the new year; and
- Other surprises Academy members can look forward to.
Join us in welcoming Tricia Matson as the new Academy president, and thanking Darrell Knapp for his year of service.
