C9 Summit

The C9 Summit is a collaborative gathering of Colorado’s diverse water stakeholders, including Basin Roundtable members, the Interbasin Compact Committee (IBCC), the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB), and the public. Designed as a space for focused engagement, this annual summit supports renewed connection among roundtables, the IBCC, and the CWCB Board, encourages knowledge-sharing across basins, and provides a platform to address CWCB initiatives and address roundtables challenges and opportunities. In addition to strengthening coordination and fostering relationship-building through interactive exercises and timely panel discussions, the C9 Summit also serves as an opportunity to consider the broader statewide vision for Colorado’s water future through exploration of emerging themes, challenges, and opportunities shaping the future of water management in Colorado.
