Sponsor Registration is Now Open!

We are thrilled to announce that the 2024 Nebraska Connection Conference is fast approaching! Join us on Wednesday, December 11, 2024, at the Embassy Suites by Hilton in La Vista, NE, for an event filled with educational sessions, networking opportunities, and interactive experiences. This year's conference will feature some exciting new elements alongside our traditional activities.

NEW! Welcome Session: Kicking Off the Event in Style
We’re excited to introduce a new Welcome Session to start the conference on a high note. Gather with fellow attendees to reconnect and set the stage for an engaging day ahead. This session will feature introductions, event highlights, and more to get you inspired and ready for the full experience.

Seminars
Past attendee surveys have shown that BLD members greatly value industry education. This year, we’re offering excellent options for both your sales and leadership/operations staff to gain crucial knowledge. Choose between the Sales Session, which will feature two back-to-back topics, or the Operations Session, also covering two consecutive topics. More information on the speakers and specific seminar topics will be coming soon.

NEW! Contractor Mini Workshops
We’re opening the Nebraska Connection Conference to contractors for the first time! We have five exclusive slots available for suppliers and sponsors to host 20-minute workshops tailored for contractors. These mini workshops will offer hands-on demonstrations of products and services. Spots are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis, so vendors interested in hosting a workshop should register early. Detailed information on these workshops will be shared as vendors confirm their participation.

Membership Lunch
After a morning of education and/or setting up tabletops, we invite all conference attendees to join us at the Membership Luncheon, starting at 11:30 am. Enjoy a delicious meal while receiving annual updates from BLD Connection, and be inspired by our keynote address, which will provide valuable insights and motivation for the year ahead.

Engaging Networking Opportunities
From 1:30 pm to 5:00 pm, take advantage of the networking session with 30 tabletop displays available for exploration. Located in the same room as the luncheon, these displays will be easily accessible throughout the afternoon. Enjoy a beverage from the bar, some dessert, and interact with sponsors to learn about their latest offerings. Participate in our vendor tabletop “game” to track your visits and enter for a chance to win the $500 grand prize!

Evening Social Event
Cap off the day with a fun evening at Smash Park, just a short walk from the Embassy Suites. From 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm, enjoy games such as axe throwing and duckpin bowling, along with a delicious BBQ dinner buffet and drinks. This is the perfect opportunity to unwind, connect with colleagues, and engage in some friendly competition.

Registration Information
Registration is now open for suppliers, and spots are limited. We encourage suppliers to register today to ensure your participation. Note that suppliers must sponsor the event to attend. Visit our website for full details, including the agenda, ongoing updates, and to register. Dealer/contractor registration will open in September!

We look forward to seeing you at the Nebraska Connection Conference for a day filled with valuable interactions and engaging experiences. Stay tuned for further updates and details!
