Early Bird Deadline Looms for NSCA Business & Leadership Conference

Save $400 by registering before the Dec. 15 early bird deadline for NSCA's Business & Leadership Conference.

You might as well save $400. The early bird deadline for the 20th annual NSCA Business & Leadership Conference, which takes place Feb. 28 to March 2, 2018, is looming. NSCA members and non-members can save $400 by registering before Dec. 15, 2017.

Commercial Integrator is NSCA’s media partner for its annual Business & Leadership Conference (BLC), so we’re biased. But invariably, past attendees agree with NSCA’s assessment that BLC has become the industry’s most notable platform for executive-level education and networking.

The event brings executives together annually to share stories, learn from other leaders, and hear about new ways to embrace technology and motivate employees. This year’s event, the monumental 20th annual BLC, takes place at Four Seasons Resort & Club Dallas at Las Colinas in Irving, Texas.

Atlas/IED is the event’s exclusive Host Sponsor, celebrating its 20th year of supporting BLC.

First-time BLC attendees may apply for a Randy Vaughan Founder’s Award to receive free registration. To qualify, applicants must be in a management or decision-making role. Applications are available here.

BLC 2018 keynotes and breakout sessions include:

  • Scaling Upby Verne Harnish
  • The Age of the Customer (presented by Insperity) by Jim Blasingame
  • Innovation by Design: Digital Leadership by Erik Qualman
  • The Hero Effectby Kevin Brown
  • Creating Business Value Using Third-Box Thinkingby Gary Kunath
  • Economic Outlook 2018by Chris Kuehl

“We’ve never been more excited to announce our speaker lineup,” says Chuck Wilson, NSCA executive director.

“To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Business & Leadership Conference, we hope to have someone from each NSCA integrator member company represent his or her firm at this event – making it the biggest and best yet. We’re also offering four industry-specific tracks focused on sales/marketing, operations, finance, and next-generation topics to help everyone do their jobs better.”

Attendees are also encouraged to register now for the annual NSCA Education Foundation Industry Charity Golf Outing at the TPC Four Seasons Las Colinas Golf Course on Feb. 28, 2018.
