Forcht Bank was the presenting sponsor of the Emerge 2018 Conference in Lexington on March 28th. The 5th Annual Emerge Conference, held in conjunction with Commerce Lexington, brought together over 400 young professionals from around central Kentucky for a day of keynote and breakout sessions devoted to skills development, professional growth, and community involvement.

Emerge cites their vision for what they hope to accomplish with the 2018 conference. “By unifying Kentucky’s emerging leaders, we are empowering our future leaders to participate through networking, collaboration, and opportunities to plug into the community, and a chance for their voice to be heard. Our communities stand to benefit through better opportunities, more diverse and engaged professionals, and ultimately a stronger economy.”
