Registration Open for 2023 Event
In a recent email to NCBA members, vendors and partners, NCBA President Aaron Watts addresses rumors.
“Rumors are swirling and we are fielding lots of questions regarding the 2024 symposium, and our future at Pinehurst,” the email reads. “The resort and town are currently going through lots of changes, and with the U.S. Open coming to Pinehurst in 2024, the resort has already started its improvement projects in preparation for the event. Typically, with these types of events, resorts will see a large increase in attendance both before and after the event. Thus, significantly increasing the average price per room night, increasing food costs, and altering the timing of any trade shows.
To minimize the financial impact to the organization, its membership, and vendors, while fulfilling our mission to ‘Enhance BiomedicalProfessionals,’ we as the Board of Directors believe it is in the best interest of all parties to relocate our Annual Symposium starting in 2024. Our general and fiscal responsibility as the BOD is to make the best decisions for this non-profit organization and its membership base. In making these tough decisions, we feel confident this resolution supports our mission, participants, and future as an organization.
More details will be announced at the 2023 business luncheon, and we look forward to fielding any questions our membership may have.
Please join us for our last year at Pinehurst. It has been a great venue and partnership over the years. We look forward to making this 45th Symposium one to remember!”
Registration remains open for the 2023 NCBA Symposium scheduled for August 14-17 at Carolina Hotel Pinehurst North Carolina. Attendees should register ASAP for the best class opportunities and hotel room availability.
