Impact Maryland by The Banner

Home Events Impact Maryland by The Banner

Impact Maryland returns with a bold new vision—and a powerful new home at the newly constructed theater at Northwest Building at M&T Bank Stadium’s North Plaza. Now in its fourth year, The Banner’s signature ideas conference is evolving into a more dynamic, immersive experience reimagined through a distinctly Maryland lens. Across one unforgettable day, leaders from business, healthcare, technology, sports, culture, media, education and public life will come together for big conversations about what’s next for Maryland—and the people shaping it.

Expect provocative ideas, unexpected pairings, live storytelling, cultural moments, and conversations that move beyond policy to explore leadership, innovation, resilience, wellness, trust, opportunity, and community.

This year’s venue is the Northwest Building at M&T Bank Stadium’s North Plaza. Guests should plan to enter from the North Plaza, which is currently Gate A Entrance/ off of Hamburg. Please note that complimentary parking is available in LOT B. Find a map here.
