Organizers of the fourth annual Chasing Greatness conference are gearing up for what they say will leave an impactful impression on attendees.
Former Mobile Mayor Sandy Stimpson, Big Oak Ranch CEO Brodie Croyle and 68 Ventures founder Nathan Cox are among the speakers expected to deliver powerful, profound messages about how their lives have been centered on service and leadership.
The one-day conference at the Mobile Convention Center is being dubbed a "leadership revolution." The idea for the event started back in 2022 as a way for 68 Ventures to deliver top-tier talent to local entrepreneurs and leaders.
Participants will hear from inspirational community, business, and nonprofit leaders who share stories of victory through risk-taking, fueled by purpose.
"All are welcome, and I promise anyone present will benefit and enjoy, regardless of their profession, background, or age," said Cox. "Beyond the messages that will be delivered from our top-notch speakers, the networking is as good as it gets in our region. I don't know of anything else in the region that brings together so many talented and accomplished folks in one place to challenge one another, push harder and to do more."
Organizers expect more participants than at the 2025 conference, which drew 500 people from across the nation.
"The support and engagement have been overwhelming, and that's why we had to move over to Mobile this year to add capacity," Cox added. "I'm fired up to see where the years will take us! It is always one of the highlights of my year."
Chasing Greatness will be held on January 22. Individuals and groups are welcome to register online.
