Kitsap’s most dynamic business event of the year returns! The Firebrand Unconference brings together current and aspiring business owners, innovators and entrepreneurs for a day of conversation, collaboration, and community.
Unlike a traditional conference, Firebrand’s agenda is shaped by its participants—founders and local leaders driving Kitsap’s next wave of growth. The 2025 theme, “Fueling the Future: What We Build Next Depends On Us,” opens the door for a founder-led exploration of the strategies, systems, and soul it takes to build a thriving business—and a thriving life—from right here in Kitsap.
Highlights include:
Keynote by Dr. Heath Hollensbe, The Meraki Agency
Entrepreneur-led breakout sessions
Closing keynote by Elizabeth Scallon, University of Washington
And the Firebrand After Party
Hosted by: Matchstick Lab, in partnership with local sponsors including lead Combustion Sponsor, Kitsap Bank
