As the cost of energy rises, it is crucial for business to manage energy expenses and stay updated on state and national legislation. Businesses can also avoid fines (and help protect the environment) by following state and federal environmental permitting regulations. Both of these issues will be addressed at Indiana Chamber conference this June.

Event details include:
