Responsibly managing your financial assets is critical to every successful business.


Are you taking advantage of the tax deductions you're entitled to?

Have you created a plan to protect your finances and build future wealth?

Have you created a financial strategy that minimizes your risks?


In our next LunchIN' session Tom Devaney, CPA, will lead our discussion and share his insights on the ways you can ensure that your business is financially ready for the future and is not "leaving money on the table" in the ways you're structured or taxed.

Tom Devaney is a respected and recognized expert having founded his own accounting firm, is a Senior Lecturer on Finance and Accounting at KSU and is currently Director of KSU's Executive MBA program. Over the years, Tom has helped hundreds of small businesses to build their financial awareness and avoid the mistakes many other businesses make. He will also talk about the new government regulations (including the 2024 Corporate Transparency Act requirements) and any changes expected in 2025.


LunchIN' is quarterly boxed lunch event that includes an interactive learning discussion with a small business subject matter expert on important topics for business leaders.
