The Presidents’ Forum is an invitation-only, annual, all-day event for presidents, founders, CEOs and top executives of growing, small and mid-market businesses.  The program is made up of hands-on case studies on specific business challenges and solutions. The principal speakers are presidents and owners of mid-market companies selected to present personal case studies of specific decisions that made substantial positive impacts on their business. Presidents share extremely private information and experiences in a series of presentations, workshops and one-on-one discussion sessions held throughout the Forum.
