Business Roundtable announced the organization’s Board of Directors and policy committee leadership for 2025. Beth Ford, president and CEO of Land O'Lakes Inc.
“For more than 50 years, Business Roundtable has supported efforts to propel the U.S. economy forward, and this group of CEOs is a testament to that commitment,” said Business Roundtable Chair Chuck Robbins, chair and CEO of Cisco. “There is a great opportunity before us to advance policies that expand economic opportunity for Americans as well as enable growth, innovation and job creation. I look forward to working with the Board, the full Roundtable membership and Washington on these shared goals.”
“With the 119th Congress in session, and President Trump’s second inauguration days away, Business Roundtable is ready to work with policymakers to bolster the competitiveness of the American economy,” said Business Roundtable CEO Joshua Bolten. “That means retaining the pro-growth provisions of 2017 tax reform, scaling back burdensome regulations and advancing trade policies that benefit American businesses, workers and consumers.”
Land O' Lakes issued the following statement: “Beth’s perspective, representing both business and working people who help build our economy and feed us all, will be valuable as she continues the progression of understanding the needs of businesses tied to immigration. She worked with Tim Cook, the previous Immigration Committee chair and looks forward to continuing to address the complex challenges of legal immigration, a workforce necessary for the economy to grow and businesses to thrive.”
Ford offered the following comment on LinkedIn:
"Today, Business Roundtable announced the organization’s Board of Directors for 2025. I look forward to continued service on the Board and working with other CEOs to advance the organization’s mission. We are stronger when we work together to promote a thriving U.S. economy and expanded opportunity for all Americans."
