The 2023 CNU Florida Summit will take place on February 16-17, 2023 in Downtown Orlando at Creative Village. Immerse yourself in a living, breathing model for New Urbanism as we explore the theme of Equitable Revitalization in Action.

Over the two days, we'll garner key insights, lessons learned and effective approaches to New Urbanism using the Creative Village - a vibrant award-winning innovation hub, home to UCF Downtown Campus, and model for equitable revitalization - as our living lab. There we'll tackle real-world challenges and solutions, share best practices, connect with peers, and learn from industry leaders against the backdrop of Downtown Orlando's largest urban and most impactful infill project.

The 2023 CNU Florida Summit is one you won't want to miss. Inspiration guaranteed.
