Come to Confront What’s Next.
A nonpartisan forum for senior leaders in defense, intelligence, geopolitics, and security innovation — set against the unspoiled wilderness of Glacier Country, Montana.
The Whitefish Security Summit is a national-level forum convening senior leaders in defense, intelligence, geopolitics, and security innovation for two days of frank, substantive conversation — far from the noise of Washington and Brussels, in the unspoiled clarity of Glacier Country, Montana.
We bring together heads of state, senior military and intelligence officials, diplomats, policy architects, journalists, and strategic thinkers from across the globe to engage the world’s most pressing security challenges. No vendor booths. No political theater. Just the hard conversations that matter.
“The most consequential security conversations happen when the right people are in the same room, away from the pressures of their capitals.”
— Mission of the Whitefish Security Summit
A New Global Forum for an Era of Consequential Risk
The Whitefish Security Summit was founded to fill a critical gap: a Western Hemisphere venue — independent, nonpartisan, and removed from the political capitals of the world — where senior leaders can engage in the substantive, off-the-record conversations that shape global security policy.
We are building what Aspen pioneered for America and Munich pioneered for Europe: a gathering that carries genuine strategic weight, draws decision-makers across governments and disciplines, and produces real impact on the issues that define our era.
Whitefish, Montana is no accident. The setting demands clarity. The mountains don’t care about your title. And that’s exactly the point.
