About the event
Kick off the Inaugural Ohio Rail Summit with an evening gathering at East Market in Ohio’s historic trolley district.
This public reception offers an opportunity to connect with fellow attendees, speakers, and partners in a relaxed, energetic setting before the formal Summit begins the following morning. From local leaders to statewide advocates, the evening will bring together those shaping the future of passenger rail and mobility in Ohio.
East Market’s food vendors will be open throughout the evening, with a cash bar available on site, making it easy to grab a bite, raise a glass, and continue the conversation.
Whether you are attending the Summit or simply interested in the conversation, this gathering is an open invitation to connect and celebrate the growing momentum around rail in our state.
