Our business team has been in NYC since Monday evening, attending our annual EAC conference, preparing for our 2026/2027 year and learning as much as we can to continue to assist entrepreneurs across the state. We were given a challenge at last years conference to get on that podium and win for our center. There would be no way to have achieved that without the magical team that’s makes up IBC. Today was a fairytale. ✨
