February 24, 2026 IMA Executive Forum Executive Priorities & Hot Topics

February 24, 2026 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM (CST)

Description

You are invited to an exclusive gathering of manufacturing leaders. This small, invitation-only forum brings together CEOs and senior executives for candid dialogue, shared insights, and meaningful connection. The IMA Executive Forum, moderated by our exceptional partners at Sikich, creates a space where leaders can openly explore the issues shaping today’s manufacturing landscape. Collaboration. Ideas. Relationships. 

Our first Executive Forum of the year will feature a moderated conversation with Mark Denzler and Jerry Murphy, Principal, Sikich LLC. We will start with a brief overview of tax changes expected to affect manufacturers followed by a peer discussion of topics that matter most to you. This session is designed to strengthen peer relationships while encouraging the exchange of ideas, challenges, and solutions. 

With emerging issues such as staff shortages, automation, tariffs, tax implications from the OBBB and cyber security adding to today’s climate of uncertainty — there is a lot to talk about. To make the most of this structured leadership forum, please come prepared to share your Hot Topics—the issues that keep you up at night—and be ready to fully engage. Cameras on, mute off. 

This is a small and exclusive forum for CEOs and key executive leadership within the manufacturing sector. Participation is limited to ensure a high-value, peer-driven experience.
