In February 2010, we created and brought to life “Frontier Sessions.” The idea was to gather diverse thinkers in a given city and ask them to tackle a social issue. The inaugural Session was launched in our hometown, Richmond, Virginia and held at the UR Downtown Center. The topic centered around the revitalization of the City of Richmond.

Our goal was to focus on developing some recommendations to bring people downtown for recreation, shopping, dining, and to strengthen our city core. We highlighted 11 small “calls to action” that we hope will generate engagement, get people talking, and add to Richmond’s robust legacy. We know there are many great initiatives going on out there and we invite individuals, families, business and government leaders everywhere to join together to continue to work towards making Richmond an incredible place to live.

Proceeds from the day were donated to the William Byrd Community House and the Friends Association. Richmond BizSense covered the session. If you would like to join us for the next session in Richmond or would like to bring Frontier Sessions to your city, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
