As we prepare for a year of festivities to celebrate NACE’s 50th anniversary, your national President, Daniel Briones, would like to get this party started!
We hope you can all participate in this nation wide celebration. We encourage you to document your chapter’s event, either through photographs or video recordings, so we can share them with the attendees at the “Experience! 2008 -The Future of Catering and Event Design” conference, taking place August 3-6, 2008 in Philadelphia, PA.
I am pleased to announce that as a result of the many conversations regarding a potential relationship between catersource and NACE, we have finally reached an agreement. The highlights include:
·Catersource has agreed to be a gold-level business partner and will receive all the benefits under our current business partner program.
·All NACE members who desire may receive a complimentary subscription to the catersource magazine. (Details to come soon)
·NACE will have booth space at the catersource exhibit hall (come and visit us at the show on February 27th and 28th!).
·NACE will provide speakers and session topics for the catersource conference (three sessions in 2008).
·NACE (through its Las Vegas chapter) will create and execute NACE signature tours taking place at the catersource show.
·Opportunities for expanded membership audience exposure for both NACE and catersource.
This relationship allows both organizations to reap the many benefits that each provides to the industry. While this is currently a one-year contract, wee are looking forward to enjoying a long-term and mutually beneficial relationship with catersource that will allow NACE to fulfill its mission of providing catering and event professionals superior education, networking and resources to enhance career success and deliver excellence to clients.
