2025 CenterState CEO Annual Meeting

Join us for CenterState CEO’s 2025 Annual Meeting as we mark the organization’s 15th anniversary and celebrate the programs, projects and partnerships driving regional impact.

This year's theme is Metamorphic - a process of change due to pressure or other outside forces. In his remarks, CenterState CEO’s President Rob Simpson will examine relevant parallels for our society, community and organization. Amid the pressures of the current cycle of change, we retain what makes us who we are - our core values, on the path toward something stronger. We also recognize the key role of innovation in the cycle of change.

The event also unveils the prestigious Business of the Year Awards, recognizing member companies in five categories: Business with fewer than 50 Employees; Business with more than 50 Employees; Community Involvement; Nonprofit; and Minority-owned Business, in partnership with the Upstate Minority Economic Alliance.
