The Expo’s list of educational speakers aims to provide the latest information about legal issues, marketing channels and business planning matters. Speakers and sessions include Employment Law Matters, Branding and Marketing Your Business, How to Value Your Business, Digital Marketing, and Small Business Basics. “You can use the trade show’s educational sessions to learn new information, be stimulated by new ideas, or walk away with an action plan for business growth,” NCET President & CEO Dave Archer said. The Expo also offers opportunities for small business owners and entrepreneurs by creating informal one-on-one conversations and networking with fellow attendees. Additionally, more than 100 vendors are located throughout the Expo providing advice on business plans, financial strategies, marketing, social media messages, legal concerns for small businesses and more. Gov. Steve Sisolak said the annual expo plays a continuing role in strengthening Nevada’s economy. “The remarkable creativity and energy of Nevada’s entrepreneurs have established the state among the nation’s leaders,” the governor said. “NCET’s Small Business Expo provides the tools that entrepreneurs need to build the thriving companies that will lead Nevada into its promising future.” For more information about the other sponsors, attending vendors and educational seminars, visit www.NCETexpo.org.     Read more local news – return to the home page at www.thefallonpost.org/ Support your local news source, make a contribution today. www.thefallonpost.org/support-our-work/ Never miss a local public meeting – sign up for the Friday email and get stories delivered straight to your inbox. www.thefallonpost.org/sign-up

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
