A Vision for the Future — Games and Beyond

Join the Silicon Valley Chamber of Commerce for our annual Mayors’ Breakfast, a signature event bringing together local leaders, business executives, and community members for a morning of insights, collaboration, and regional updates.

This year’s theme, “Games and Beyond,” explores the transformative opportunities for the Bay Area with The Games of 2026, major sporting Super Bowl LX (2026) and the FIFA World Cup, and the future with changing economic conditions, technology workforce, and strategic initiatives for each city: jobs, housing, forecast, infrastructure, and more.

Our panel of Silicon Valley mayors will share their visions for the region’s growth — from infrastructure and innovation to tourism, economic development, and civic engagement.

Enjoy a delicious breakfast, connect with fellow business and civic leaders, and gain a firsthand look at what’s ahead for the cities that power Silicon Valley.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to hear legislative updates, policy insights, and collaborative plans shaping the next decade of the Bay Area’s success.
