The 2026 Shared Kitchen Summit agenda keeps growing. 📋

Swipe to meet four new sessions just added to the lineup:

→ The CEO Shift — The kitchen is running, but is the business growing? Deb Oxman helps operators make the leap from daily manager to strategic CEO — with the systems and team structure to prove it.

→ Small Market, Big Impact — Urban models don’t account for everything. Yonatan Weinberg and R. Valentino Zubia bring on-the-ground experience supporting shared kitchen development in rural and small city communities across California.

→ From Idea to Pre-Development — Peter Fliri is in the middle of building a nonprofit shared kitchen in Connecticut and he’s not waiting until it’s finished to share what he’s learned. The honest early-stage perspective you won’t find in the success stories.

→ The Backpedal That Built Trust — Abby Herman changed the pricing at NoCo Community Kitchen when she had no predecessor, no kitchen experience, and a member base that knew the place better than she did. Here’s what happened.

These sessions + more await in Providence this October. Tickets are going fast — link in bio.
