PRIDE Industries is a shining example of success in the greater Sacramento region. While regionally they are the third largest manufacturing and service company, nationally PRIDE is one of the largest employers of people with disabilities.

Come listen to the dynamic Michael Ziegler as he explains how PRIDE has grown from a small non-profit organization with 65 employees and a $250,000 budget, to a self-sufficient corporation with more than 4,400 employees and $100+ million dollars in annual revenue.

PRIDE embodies many of the elements of the new Sacramento. Building on its local presence, the company provides commercial, government, manufacturing and logistics services in eleven states.

Learn how about PRIDE's business strategy, sustained growth, and lessons learned along the way.

Also come for the networking before and after the program. It's a great way to re-connect with colleagues after the summer, and -as always - meet new people.
