This year’s conference, held June 23-25 in the vibrant Kansas City Metro, invites attendees to explore the theme of “Resonance,” diving deep into the impact and harmony that innovative educational approaches can create in shaping the future of learning.

Riffing on Ideas, Syncing on Solutions

Education is undergoing a transformative era, and the CAPS Network Summer Huddle 2025 provides a collaborative space for thought leaders, educators, and innovators to unite. Under the tagline “Riffing on Ideas, Syncing on Solutions,” the conference will celebrate Kansas City’s rich history of jazz—a perfect metaphor for the improvisation, creativity, and collaboration that define entrepreneurial education. Together, participants will engage in meaningful discussions, share bold ideas, and synchronize on practical solutions to address challenges in profession-based learning.

Dynamic Conversations and Collaborative Solution-Seeking

This year’s theme, Resonance, reflects the power of ideas, relationships, and actions coming together to create lasting impact. Throughout the event, attendees will engage in a variety of dynamic sessions:

🎤 CAPS Talks – A mystery session showcasing bold innovations across the network, designed to spark new collaborations and fresh insights.

🚀 Amplify Sessions – Fast-paced, hands-on challenges where attendees tackle real-world issues and develop actionable solutions.

🤝 Resonance Studios – Small-group sessions connecting like-strand, like-industry attendees for networking, problem-solving, and goal-setting.

🎓 Student Showcase – A platform where students present their projects, share their experiences, and contribute their voices to the future of education.

💡 Encore Networking – An informal, post-conference session where attendees can continue conversations, reflect on takeaways, and receive coaching from CAPS staff.

Whether you’re an experienced CAPS affiliate, a new educator exploring profession-based learning, or a business professional eager to engage with future-ready students, Huddle 2025 will provide the inspiration and resources you need to take action.
