13 Apr 2024
Show Floor Theater

Join leaders from the IFA Foundation for an introductory session on the world of franchising. During this session, franchise executives will outline what the franchise business model is, how far it reaches, and why it is uniquely suited for people of color, underrepresented communities, women, veterans, and more. Attendees will learn why many franchise companies are eager to identify, recruit, support, and advance a more diverse pipeline of talent throughout their brands and how the IFA Foundation can help you explore the franchise opportunities available as a prospective franchisee. This will be a lively, open discussion with lots of interaction from the audience, so bring your questions!
