Join us for one of the region’s most enduring and well-loved business traditions: the Fall Business Classic.

This year’s gathering takes place at Signal House, a stunning rooftop venue in the heart of Union Market—one of D.C.’s most vibrant and fast-evolving neighborhoods. With its creative energy, entrepreneurial spirit, and rich cultural mix, Union Market is a powerful symbol of the region’s continued transformation.

For years, this standout event has brought together hundreds of business, government, and civic leaders. Join us this year for an evening of:

  • Food, drinks, and rooftop activities in a dynamic setting
  • New connections across sectors and industries
  • A chance to experience the Union Market neighborhood’s innovation and vitality firsthand

Celebrate progress, strengthen your network, and be part of a tradition that continues to capture the energy of Greater Washington’s business community.
