If you did not attend BIZ BASH at the Convention Center on April 28th, you missed an amazing event. As NACE members, we were offered a 20% discount to attend and over 1,200 industry professionals turned out. NACE had great exposure with our membership table. The EXPO, breakout sessions and closing reception clearly showcased South Florida as TRENDSETTERS not followers PLUS Stephanie Bosco-Luca and I had the opportunity to participate in a Industry Mash-Up that brought all our region associations together. A BIG THANK YOU to Stephanie, our membership chair and Renee, our communications chair for participating with me.
Tuesday, May 18th NACE meeting will be aboard Tikki Beach. The yacht will leave Bayfront Park / Bayside to cruise Biscayne Bay on this unique floating venue. We are planning a full meeting and look forward to seeing you there. Space is limited...
We are working on our June meeting "TASTE of NACE" which is the return of an outstanding industry event that many of us eagerly anticipate its return.
