Each year for The Diplomat, Hartford rolls out the red carpet to welcome dozens of diplomats from around the world to our state’s capital.
Connecticut is a global state, and this evening is a testament to the strength of our international connections.
Hartford’s most anticipated global event is an opportunity to connect, network, and meet a new global connection among Connecticut’s diplomatic corps and business, government, and community leaders.
THE DIPLOMAT
On June 10, 2025, we welcomed the world to Hartford for the first ever Diplomat x Luminary Award for an evening of global connections. In addition to 40+ diplomats from over 30 countries, the Council presented the Luminary Award to Donald Allan, Jr., President & CEO of Stanley Black & Decker.
