The Creative
Collaboration Summit™
Where dreams, goals & projects find their missing pieces.
Bring the dream, goal or project you want to move forward. Spend three extraordinary days learning, sharing and collaborating with people who may have an idea, connection, resource, perspective or missing piece you never knew you needed — and discover where you might be the missing piece for someone else.
This isn't an event where you sit back and watch.
This is a facilitated collaboration experience. People are not merely audience members — they are part of what makes the Summit valuable.
- You will learn.
- You will talk.
- You will listen.
- You will contribute.
- You will receive contribution.
- You will meet people outside your usual circles.
- You will practice trusting your own instincts.
- You will discover perspectives, people and possibilities you could not have planned in advance.
A facilitated global collaboration experience.
The Creative Collaboration Summit™ brings together extraordinary people to create, connect, contribute, and collaborate. Guests don't sit passively through presentations — they participate in powerful conversations, practical learning, and structured collaboration designed to help dreams, goals, and projects find their missing pieces.
Discover
What you're creating, what matters to you, and what becomes possible.
Connect
With people, resources, perspectives, and opportunities that move things forward.
Contribute
Your skills, resources, connections, knowledge, and experience to something meaningful.
Collaborate
Turn discoveries into relationships, commitments, and next steps.
If something matters to you, this is for you.
It is intentionally inclusive — for people working on businesses, nonprofits, community initiatives, creative projects, family dreams, personal goals, books, inventions, movements, and things that don't even have a category yet.
It is for people working on
And for
You don't need an impressive title. You don't need a polished business plan. You don't need to know exactly what you need.
You need something you care about moving forward — or a desire to contribute to something that matters.
Your missing piece might be a conversation away.
Imagine the room: extraordinary people from every field and walk of life, each arriving with something they need — and something they can give. (We sell possibility, not guarantees.)
An entrepreneur building something ambitious.
A philanthropist searching for meaningful ways to contribute.
An investor curious about what people are creating.
A nonprofit leader solving a problem that matters.
A creator with exactly the skill someone needs.
An executive with years of experience in a challenge another person is facing.
A project enthusiast looking for something meaningful to join.
Someone with a relationship, resource, idea or perspective another attendee never thought to ask for.
Someone without an impressive title who happens to know exactly the person someone else needs to meet.
Everyone arrives with both something they need and something they can contribute.
In the Collaboration Rounds™, the people at your table have 90 seconds to contribute as much value as they can to you. You might receive:

The Collaboration Rounds™
One of the Summit's most memorable features. A two-part speed-contribution format that practices generous listening and generous contribution — at in-person round tables and in online breakout rooms alike.
90 seconds to share. 90 seconds to contribute. Unlimited possibility.
Fun, fast & focused networking & collaboration.
90 Seconds to Share
One participant answers as many of the provided prompts as they can within 90 seconds. No perfect pitch. No rehearsed performance. No need to have everything figured out. Speak. Trust yourself. Let people hear what is actually there.
90 Seconds of Speed Contribution
Everyone else at the table or in the breakout room now has 90 seconds to contribute as much value as they can to that person: an idea, an insight, a connection, a resource, relevant experience, a possible solution, a question, someone to meet, a potential next step — or a completely unexpected perspective. Then the next person goes.
Generous listening. Generous contribution.
Participants learn to listen without immediately judging, fixing, or preparing their own answer — and to contribute generously to others. In person: round tables of approximately eight people, with rotations so you meet more people. Online: facilitated breakout rooms using the same two-part format.
A Summit workbook helps you capture ideas, names, connections, resources, insights, commitments, follow-ups — and the missing pieces you discover. The exact questions and workbook content are supplied separately.
The people shaping the room.

I've spent much of my life seeing things in people they don't always see in themselves — their talents, possibilities, connections and value.
I've also seen what can happen when the right people, ideas and opportunities collide.
I didn't create the Creative Collaboration Summit™ so you could spend three days being talked at.
I want you talking. Listening. Contributing. Trusting yourself. Meeting people outside your usual circles. And discovering possibilities none of us could have planned in advance.
Bring something you care about. And come prepared to care about what other people are creating too.
— Amy K. Thomson
When extraordinary people come together.
The Summit has existed before. This space is built for real photographs, real voices, and real stories — replaceable as Amy supplies them. Nothing here is invented.
My favorite thing about the event is everyone being a gift to everyone else's dreams.
David Sampson
There were so many opportunities shared for people like me. There is no doubt that this summit is the best!
Ferlie Almonte
I love being of contribution to anyone who is seeking support. Thank you so much for organizing such an awesome event.
Eric Zuley
I am grateful for all the wonderful connections and collaboration that happens during this event.

They arrived with
[Placeholder] A community initiative that had stalled — passion, but no clear next step and no network to draw on.
They discovered
[Placeholder] A collaborator at her table who'd built exactly the kind of program she was trying to create, and a funder curious about the space.
What happened next
[Placeholder] A follow-up conversation that turned into a working relationship. Real outcome to be inserted.
They arrived with
[Placeholder] A book idea and a deep reluctance to talk about it publicly. No pitch, no plan — just a story that mattered.
They discovered
[Placeholder] That three people at her table had been waiting for exactly that story — and one had the publishing connection she'd never thought to ask for.
What happened next
[Placeholder] A first real conversation about getting it into the world. Real outcome to be inserted.
They arrived with
[Placeholder] An early-stage invention and a need for both technical help and someone who could see the commercial path.
They discovered
[Placeholder] An engineer who'd solved a similar problem and an investor who asked one question that reframed the whole opportunity.
What happened next
[Placeholder] A commitment to keep talking after the Summit. Real outcome to be inserted.
Meet the people who will get you thinking differently.

The VIP hour & the VVIP experience
Each day continues with one additional VIP hour, then the VVIP experience with Amy and designated key team members — planned for approximately 30 minutes each day, with reasonable flexibility.
Communication that moves things forward.
People with dreams, projects, causes and businesses need to communicate what they're creating, ask for support, and have confident conversations. The daily training helps with exactly that. Amy may invite participants to continue developing these abilities through the Sales Confidence Machine — a relevant, proportionate invitation. The Summit itself is not a three-day pitch.
Come with a dream. Leave with momentum.
You don't need a polished business plan. You don't need to know exactly what you need. You don't need to be a successful entrepreneur. Bring something you care about moving forward — and bring a willingness to contribute to someone else's.
Online from $17. Because price shouldn't keep anyone out.
Three tiers — General, VIP, and VVIP — each welcoming, each a meaningful step up. Experience it. Go deeper. Make it personal.
The missing piece might be you.
Three days of extraordinary people, meaningful conversations, generous contribution, and new possibilities.
