About this Event

Business & Brews with CBN and Special Guest Dr. Toby Malichi

Join us for CBN Business & Brews on Wednesday, August 21 at 6:00 PM in the Platinum Lounge for a conversation that takes you beyond the buzzwords and into the real-world impact of trade policies.

Our speaker is none other than Dr. Toby Malichi, a world-renowned expert in global trade who’s advised seven U.S. Presidents, led trade policy talks around the globe, and built a powerhouse business right here in Indiana.
