Las Vegas, Nevada – The Golbon 2018 Spring Member Conference was held March 26-28, 2018 in Las Vegas, Nevada. This event brought together more than 400 Golbon distributor members and supplier partners for three days of business building and networking.
Golbon continues to go to great lengths to ensure the distributors and suppliers have every opportunity to connect. The opening day highlighted the third annual Service Provider Spectacular, featuring a variety of Golbon’s service partners: from those providing warehouse management systems, to software providers, financial solutions and creative services.
The opening night highlighted seven key Impact Golbon suppliers during the Happy Hour Showcase event. This event provided a venue for attendees to reconnect and network while enjoying delicious finger foods.
The show floor set the perfect stage with attendees coming together to discuss new opportunities for growth and mutual success. A focused energy was evident as distributors and suppliers met in scheduled appointments over two days of the food show.
Golbon’s featured guest speaker was Anirban Basu, with a Rolling Stones themed presentation: “Brown Sugar: Rockin’ the Economic Data.” Mr. Basu, Chairman & CEO of Sage Policy Group, is one of the Mid-Atlantic region’s leading economic consultants. He is the author of numerous regional publications including the mid-Atlantic Economic Quarterly and Outlook Maryland and is routinely asked to contribute to local media, and radio shows.
