Industry leaders are urged to mark their calendars, and watch for conference details by visiting www.nspf.org and clicking on the conference tab.
The most influential academic, industry, and government experts will share the latest research in this intimate environment to understand emerging issues, exchange ideas, and formulate future plans. A cross section of industry segments attend, including leaders from academia, associations, building, consulting, retail, aquatic facilities, service, public health/government, health and medical, and manufacturers. Companies and organizations should consider holding their leadership or sales meetings adjacent to the Conference to make conference attendance more convenient.
