What is Convergence?

RVA757 Connects, ChamberRVA, and the Hampton Roads Chamber put on this annual event to showcase important initiatives and successes in advancing the I-64 Innovation Corridor.

More than a decade ago, leaders in the Richmond region (RVA) and Hampton Roads (757) realized that nearby localities shouldn't compete but collaborate to make great things happen for both regions.

ChamberRVA and the Hampton Roads Chamber concurred, inspiring RVA and the 757 to start working together on critical infrastructure needs.

Because of the importance of this interregional work, the chambers put on an annual event called Convergence to showcase the important initiatives and success of RVA757 Connects in advancing the I-64 Innovation Corridor.
