Middle Market Network is The Wall Street Journal’s event that brings together leading figures in business, finance and government to discuss the opportunities and risks shaping the future of America’s middle market—the engine of U.S. growth, job creation and competitiveness. Throughout the day, the editors will lead dynamic discussions with experts on the business issues that matter most to the sector. We’ll also explore—with Washington insiders—how the legislative, regulatory and trade policies of a new administration and Congress will affect midsize companies.  National Center for the Middle Market Executive Director, Tom Stewart, will speak about issues that are top of mind for middle-market executives and where they see opportunity and risks.
