 On August 15, 2025, the Council for Quality Growth hosted more than 500 attendees at the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Theater in City Springs for its 5th annual The INTERSECTION Quality Development Conference. This event is product of the Quality Growth Institute, the education arm of the Council. The INTERSECTION convened public policy and private business leaders from across the region to discuss critical issues facing metro Atlanta. The 2025 theme was “Infrastructure and Investment,” which continued conversations around infrastructure presented last year, but with a new focus on the challenging landscape for funding it at the local, state, and national levels. Doug Hooker, former Executive Director of the Atlanta Regional Commission, served master of ceremonies.
