WSA Details 2024 Workplace Solutions Summit

The Workplace Solutions Association (WSA), Powered by ISSA, is pleased to announce that 2024 Workplace Solutions Summit will take place April 10 – 11 in Washington D.C. The annual event provides a significant opportunity for workplace solutions thought leaders to meet with members of Congress and other elected officials to educate them on how their policies impact the bottom line and the ability to grow in this ever-evolving environment.

“There is a lot at stake with the November elections. You have two parties with two very different agendas, which will drive legislation for the next four years. It’s why this year’s fly-in event is so critical,” said WSA Advocacy Representative Paul Miller. “This event offers a unique opportunity to address our concerns face-to-face with policymakers, educating them on our concerns and collaborating to further grow our businesses. It’s our chance to help direct the issues that will take center stage post-election, regardless of who wins. Small business issues should be a priority for both parties and our mission is to make that case.”

WSA has been advocating for small businesses of the office products and furniture industry’s ability to market to the U.S. government for more than 20 years. To increase the efficiency and success of the annual Workplace Solutions Summit, WSA shifted the format to an invitation-only event starting in 2023. This year, several members of the WSA advisory board, along with other supportive dealers, will visit with elected officials for face-to-face discussions on the crucial issues impacting our industry.

The two-day summit is an opportunity for participants to hear from thought leaders and policymakers, network with their peers, and advocate for solutions to the challenges facing the small businesses in our industry. The event is sponsored by Office Partners Inc., Essendant, Independent Suppliers Group (ISG), and S.P. Richards Co.

“WSA would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our sponsors for assisting in advocating for our small businesses,” said WSA Executive Director Mike Tucker. “Their generous support ensures your voice can be heard by key policymakers, helping shape the future of our industry.”
