A candid view of the value of convention centers in the USA.

The ‘COUNT ME IN’ conferences are going from strength to strength!! 💪 We’ve had more and more people wanting to attend over the past couple of years so we’re taking the plunge and adding 2 more dates to the annual schedule for 2025. What can you expect? Well, our agendas are designed to be engaging, entertaining and informative for all of our delegates. We want you to listen to and learn from our experts but we also want to hear your voice as part of the experience. Panels are interactive, practical and spontaneous; we aren’t bound by convention and we want you to have your questions answered and your voice heard. That’s why we’re keen on a diversity workshop so you can bring your headaches and issues to the conference and is also why we have our legendary roundtables so that you can also share your experiences with others as well as keep up to date on all the latest DEIB news!   To find out more about the conferences visit our website - https://lnkd.in/dUfz7Rzq If you'd like to register your interest for the conferences now in order to be kept up to date on developments by email then drop a note to 🤗 Danielle Wood our Community Engagement Manager - danielle@egf.events.   #CountMeIn #DEIB #TurningWordsIntoActions #InclusiveCultures #BelongingMatters #Diversity #Equity Jo Abergel Adrian Sladdin Christina Thakor-Rankin

🌟 Exciting News Alert! 🌟 The BISON Restoration Services team is headed to Dallas next week for the 2024 RIA International Restoration Convention & Industry Expo! 🎉 Conventions aren't just about networking and flashy booths; they're about growth, connection, and community-building. Our team sees them as invaluable opportunities to expand our knowledge, make meaningful connections, and contribute to building a stronger community. Our team goals for the convention: 1️⃣ Knowledge Expansion: Conventions are like treasure troves of insights, trends, and innovations. We're eager to soak up all the latest industry knowledge, techniques, and best practices. Because staying ahead means staying informed. 2️⃣ Connection Building: We believe in the power of relationships. Conventions provide the perfect platform to forge new connections, deepen existing ones, and collaborate with like-minded professionals. Because together, we can achieve so much more. 3️⃣ Community Enhancement: Our commitment to community extends beyond our own organization. We see conventions as opportunities to contribute to and enrich the broader professional community. Whether it's sharing our expertise, offering support, or simply lending an ear, we're here to make a positive impact. So, as we pack our bags and prepare for RIA 2024, we're not just excited about the exhibits and workshops (although those are always interesting!). We're excited about the potential for growth, the chance to connect, and the opportunity to contribute to a better, stronger community. 🚀 #TeamGoals #Networking #CommunityBuilding #ConventionSeason #BisonRestoration #Restoration #OklahomaCity #Dallas #Teamwork #Growth
