Freedom & Progress 2026 is FREOPP’s flagship annual gathering of leaders committed to expanding opportunity through free enterprise, innovation, pluralism, and individual liberty. On November 18, policymakers, journalists, philanthropists, entrepreneurs, scholars, and civic leaders from across the country will convene in Washington, D.C., to explore the ideas and solutions shaping America’s future.

Freedom & Progress is a community of people focused on turning ideas into action. Throughout the day, attendees will engage in thought-provoking discussions on economic growth, innovation, artificial intelligence, workforce development, housing, health care, education, and the future of the American dream. Whether you work in government, policy, media, philanthropy, business, or the nonprofit sector, Freedom & Progress offers a unique opportunity to connect with leaders across disciplines, exchange ideas, and help shape the policies and institutions that will define the next generation of American opportunity.
