Mayor Justin Bibb and Baron Davis have a conversation at the City Club of Cleveland.

As the world turns to Cleveland to celebrate the greatness of NBA athletes, we'll take a moment for a conversation between two leaders driven relentlessly to find new peaks in their own careers.

A political newcomer with a dedication to public service, Justin Bibb became Cleveland's 58th mayor in January 2022, taking office with a promise to modernize city operations and to work in partnership with the business community to improve the local economy. At 34 years old, Mayor Bibb has worked in both the public and private sectors and been a pivotal force in numerous community initiatives and non-profit start ups.

Before he played for the Cavs in 2011, Baron Davis was a two-time NBA All-Star. When he left the NBA behind, Davis turned his attention to a variety of entrepreneurial endeavors, many of them in content creation, gaming, and convening community.
