Exhibit table sales will open at 10 a.m. Central
on Wednesday, Dec. 13!
Each year, the districts of the Business Technology Association host educational and networking events that are well received by both dealer attendees and exhibitors. These are not convention-center events in cavernous exhibit halls, but they are smaller, hotel-based events where all dealer attendees have plenty of opportunities to interact with one another and with exhibitors. The base-level sponsorship for each event is $4,000 and includes attendance for two people; additional registrants will be $199 each. Additionally, each event will provide upgrade opportunities for those wanting to secure special sponsorship opportunities such as sponsorship of a cocktail reception, breakfast, lunch, breaks, an evening at the ballpark or another special networking event. These exclusive upgrades include five minutes to present on stage to the attendees.

Testimonials
Here a few comments from attendees of BTA's 2023 events:
- Spring Break, hosted by BTA Southeast: "I've participated in this event [Spring Break] for many, many years and I will say, this year was quite inspiring. I really enjoyed the speakers; the education was great, the storytelling was great. And even for a guy like me who has 31 years in the business, I’m motivated to go home and get my team riled up." — Bob Heffelfinger, Advanced Office Systems Inc., Johnstown, Pennsylvania
- Capture the Magic, hosted by BTA West: "The entire event [Capture the Magic] was extremely valuable. The venue is obviously beautiful here in Aurora [Colorado]. It’s been a great opportunity to exchange ideas with peers and other folks in the industry. There was a great keynote speaker who really gave me a lot of ideas on helping me run our business. With the dealer panels, you’re getting real-world stuff. I thought it was absolutely excellent." — Jim George, Donnellon McCarthy Enterprises, Cincinnati, Ohio
- 2023 BTA National Conference, hosted by BTA East & BTA Mid-America: "I thought this [the 2023 BTA National Conference] was amazing. I’ve been to many dealer meetings and some other BTA events and, by far, this was a home run. I was able to talk to people I probably wouldn’t have talked to in the past. It was fantastic. You guys did a really good job and I really appreciate the fact that you put this together." — Randy Rezek, Town Business Systems, Norwood, Massachusetts
- Fall Colors Retreat, hosted by BTA Southeast: "This [the Fall Colors Retreat] was my first BTA meeting; we're a brand-new member. I was looking to dig in and find out what I could do differently at my dealership ... [I liked] the fact that the vendors are participating during the entire meeting and they’re not tucked off in some other space — we're all connected, we're all interacting ... Learning and getting to know some of the guys at other dealerships that are in similar positions as I am [was great] ... The vibe that I'm getting is that everybody is very helpful and very interested in helping one another succeed." — John Pecnik, Dowling Douglas Co., Jacksonville, Florida
