Who is the IBAW?

Since 1973, the IBAW has helped business owners and professionals advance their business through insightful programming, peer-to-peer networking and advocacy for their business in Madison and Washington D.C.

The majority of IBAW members are made up of small, independent business owners, managers and professionals who are looking for something more in a business organization than simply going to "networking" events. They want valuable business content, meaningful business relationships, and a voice with government both at the state and federal level.

Our members typically own businesses with sales from $3 million to $75 million in sales, and have 50 employees or under. Other members are those that support those businesses whether they are financial, legal, technical or some other type of service industry. 

Regardless of your company size, whether you have 200 employees or just 1, if you are a free market thinker, you should join the IBAW.
