The Stewardverse™ Business Forum.

  • The Hennepin 900 Hennepin Avenue Minneapolis, MN, 55403 United States (map)

Join us for DevryBV’s next business leader summit, the 2026 Stewardverse Business Forum, on Earth Day, April 22nd, 2026, in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

The forum marks the official launch of the Stewardverse Leadership Institute. The institute is founded on the idea that business leaders can safeguard their company's financial success while also protecting nature and people. We believe the role of ethics-guided businesses is to build and lead sustainable economic outcomes in local, national, and global markets.

What to Expect.

The forum is an opportunity to connect with and learn from accomplished business leaders who have successfully navigated volatile markets and adapted to customer, consumer, and regulatory demands for more sustainable products, services, and technology.

You'll immerse yourself in discussions about doing business in a time of economic, geopolitical, environmental, and social uncertainty. You'll leave with valuable business connections, innovative ideas, and the inspiration to become a Stewardverse Leader for your company.

Become a Stewardverse Leader.

The name “Stewardverse” comes from the words steward, meaning a “safekeeper of the whole house,” and verse, meaning to “turn toward.” It's a reminder that we can turn toward a more sustainable future by safeguarding our companies' success, people, and the environment.

What better day to launch the Stewardverse Leadership Institute than on Earth Day? We look forward to seeing you there.

Space is limited, so please indicate your interest in attending by filling out the form below. Official invitations will be sent on February 1, 2026. We’ll be sharing regular updates about speakers and session topics in the months leading up to the summit. If you have any questions, please email events@devrybv.com.
