The Small Firm Forum (SFF) of AIA NEI is a group of small firm practitioners and aspiring firm owners that meet monthly in a round-table setting for professional presentations as well as a forum to participate in discussions of relevant small firm matters.  The SFF is designed to provide a resource for sharing and learning from each other’s knowledge and experiences with like-minded colleagues.  Monthly meetings occur on the 2nd Tuesday of every month.

This month’s meeting is an open request for attendees to provide feedback on past forums, suggestions for 2025 topics and provide an opportunity to become more involved and participate in the program.  If you think the SFF is, has and can continue to be a positive component to your practice please join us for a discussion and planning session to have your input heard.
