NSCA has announced the keynote lineup for its 25th annual Business & Leadership Conference (BLC), which will be held on Feb. 28 – March 2, 2023, at the Four Seasons Dallas at Las Colinas in Irving, TX.

NSCA’s BLC brings hundreds of executives together annually to share stories, learn from other leaders, and hear about new ways to embrace technology and motivate employees. This upcoming conference will mark the 25th anniversary of BLC, occurring at a time when integration companies need support more than ever amid a changing—and challenging—market.

The BLC 2023 keynotes, designed to reveal effective leadership strategies, will be:

• Finding Focus in a World of Chaos by Dave Crenshaw
• Don’t Sell Yourself Short by Chuck Wilson and integration industry vets
• Cultures of Innovation by Tatyana Mamut, PhD
• Financial Leadership in 2023 & Beyond by Robert “Cujo” Teschner
• Leading with Courage and Confidence by Dr. Ivan Joseph
• The Secrets to Crushing Competition Regardless of Price by Ian Altman
• Economic Outlook 2023 and Beyond by Dr. Chris Kuehl

“BLC has always been about helping integration companies strategize for future success,” said Chuck Wilson, the organization‘s CEO. “Turmoil is nothing new to the integration community—and neither is NSCA’s role in helping integrators through it. This event is one of the few places where integration leaders can discuss the industry’s distinct obstacles, and the 25th anniversary of BLC will be the perfect opportunity for the industry to come together to strategize for future success.”

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 at a commercial integration firm. Applications are available here and due by Dec. 16, 2022.

Attendees are also encouraged to register for the annual NSCA Education Foundation Industry Charity Golf Outing at the TPC Four Seasons Las Colinas on Feb. 28. This event kicks off the Business & Leadership Conference every year and helps the NSCA Education Foundation raise funds for programs such as Ignite and PASS K-12.
