For us, this is now something that we calendar immediately for the next year and look forward to as a family.

The conference has fostered a Vision for my husband and I regarding what it means to be Owners instead of a Manager/Operator. Thank you Prairie Family Business for your incredible leadership.

An energizing and insightful experience!

The sessions were not only forward-thinking but also deeply relevant, offering fresh perspectives on succession, governance, and family dynamics. It sparked meaningful internal conversations for our team and helped us align on long-term goals. We're leaving with practical tools and a renewed sense of direction.

– Don R., Evolve Systems

Even if you feel confident in your trust and succession plans, the PFBA conference will challenge you to think deeper and plan smarter.

After years of planning and attending the conferences, I still walked away with powerful insights that will shape our family business for generations. There's always more to learn, and this conference delivers the kind of value you didn't know you were missing.

 – Christie E., Lloyd Companies
