Specialty breakout tracks specifically geared toward sales and marketing and communications will also be featured.

“Our goal year after year is to present a platform for education and growth,” said David Hoppens, president of TMSA. “This year, as the industry continues to face challenges, we will strive to provide attendees with dynamic ideas, connections and recognition not only to better their businesses, but also to deliver personal and professional growth.”
