Those ready to explore the world of franchising will have the unique opportunity to meet face-to-face with representatives of over 400 franchise brands to learn about potential business opportunities and explore emerging and mature franchise concepts all while absorbing actionable business advice.
The International Franchise Expo will kick off with a ribbon cutting ceremony lead by Linda McMahon, the Administrator of the Small Business Administration and member of President's Cabinet.

Immediately following the ribbon cutting, doors will open to thousands of entrepreneurs ready to get on the fast track to owning and starting a small business by meeting face-to-face with high-level franchisor executives.
"The International Franchise Expo was a visionary and eye-opening event for me. I learned so much from the three-day training about franchises," said Zahid Askani, Principal and Founder of The Oasis School Gwadar. "After a thorough visit of the expo, I learned and was motivated so much that I have decided to build my own franchise business."
Throughout the three-day event, attendees are encouraged to take advantage of the expansive display of franchise opportunities across nearly every industry, explore and network with industry-leading franchise brands while having the option to attend comprehensive educational programs. The IFE offers more than 70 free educational seminars and 10 in-depth workshops covering a variety of topics.

"This expo continues to draw a large, diverse crowd seeking to achieve financial freedom and change their lives through entrepreneurship. We're constantly looking to provide additional resources to our attendees as the show continues to grow in size.
