CMP Today

We invite you to attend Events Industry Council’s CMP
Conclave 2018, 16-18 November in Birmingham, Ala. This event will be a
valuable opportunity for CMPs to gain education, industry knowledge and new
ideas that they can put to use immediately upon return. This year’s CMP Conclave
is filled with amazing keynote speakers, concurrent session presenters and many
opportunities for CMPs to contribute, inspire and elevate.

With an expected attendance of hundreds of professionals
within our industry, there will be industry leaders and event professional peers
to connect and exchange ideas. The opportunity to meet and network with fellow
CMPs who face similar challenges will be invaluable and will provide a chance
to share with others the best practices we use within the industry.

We hope to see you there!
