Bill Clinton, Colin Powell headline star-studded IFA convention

We’re almost half way through January, so it seems like there’s no better time to highlight one of the biggest events on the franchising calendar.

Exactly one month from today, the IFA’s Annual Convention gets underway in San Diego. If you were among the almost 3,000 people who attended last year’s convention in Orlando, you’ll know just how fun, informative and helpful these gatherings can be. Franchising is a big tent and the conference will provide an opportunity to rub shoulders with the best and brightest across the industry.

To make things even more interesting, former Secretary of State Colin Powell will deliver the Opening General Session keynote address and Sunday’s General Session will feature none other than the 42nd President of the United States, Bill Clinton.

The IFA’s Annual Convention is where the world of franchising comes together. Here’s some info on staying in San Diego, and a run-down of what to expect during the weekend.

And don’t forget, we’ll have a few more reminders of the event before the big weekend.
