The Next 5 Years Conference will be held on Wednesday in Fargo. Steve Olson organizes this executive-level conference. “As the name says, we’re focused on the next five years,” Olson told RRFN. “A lot of times, people, whether it’s business leaders or just us as individuals, tend to focus on something that may be longer term, maybe 15 years down the road, or else we focus on what’s on fire today in front of us. The whole intent is how do we strengthen this region’s agriculture by helping ag businesses, organizations, and individuals take a look at something that’s more near-term.” Olson said the goal is to feature thought-provoking speakers, including geopolitical specialist Jacob Shapiro and ag strategist Vance Crowe. Registration can be done online.
