The Richmond Forum: Mission & Overview
The Richmond Forum brings leaders from the world stage to our stage in Richmond to expand horizons, stimulate conversation and inspire our community.
For over 20 years, The Richmond Forum has been bringing the world's most stimulating and engaging speakers from a wide variety of diverse backgrounds to Richmond, Virginia. From former Prime Minister Tony Blair, to journalist Tim Russert, to legendary blues musician B.B. King, some of the most famous and influential people in the world have spoken from The Forum stage in Richmond.
Forum programs strive to offer members of the Richmond community the opportunity to discuss and embrace the larger issues and events that we confront as citizens of the world.
