Business Solves
For 25 years, our annual Business Solves Conference and Citizens Awards have brought together businesses—large and small—to showcase ideas and solutions to serve others, solve problems, and strengthen society.
Our speakers and sponsors at the 2024 Business Solves Conference on October 29-30 are dedicated to Strengthening Communities, Today and Tomorrow.
Attendees gained specific examples of how business is helping solve critical societal issues and discover partnership opportunities to advance the good work you’re leading in communities.
We also revealed the winners of our 25th Annual Citizens Awards—nine companies that are utilizing their unique talent, resources, and expertise to improve communities.
