The Future of Small Business
Sustainability is the central theme for all 2025 ILFs. Our sessions focus on comprehensive sustainability needs/challenges as well as topics that are most relevant to each individual sector.

Ashley Ranslow, the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) New York Director, will give a presentation on government regulations and market trends that impact all owners and businesses.
