More than 3,000 elected officials from every corner of the United States convened in Pittsburgh during the 2016 City Summit in Pittsburgh from November 16 through 19. They attended general sessions, mobile workshops, and other collaborative events that helped to explore and attempted to solve national city priorities, including sustainability, transportation, innovative partnerships, and climate change. The Covestro Center for Community Engagement at the Bayer Center for Nonprofit Management hosted one of the mobile workshops, called the Corporate Connection, which focused on the idea that healthy relationships between nonprofit and corporate agencies are a key part of thriving cities of all sizes.
