Thought Leaders Assemble at WEC Grapevine
More than 20 senior industry professionals are gathering over the course of WEC Grapevine for the association’s annual Thought Leaders Summit.
This intimate, invite-only event offers industry leaders dedicated networking and education opportunities, including exclusive sessions, such as the journey undertaken to plan WEC in these complicated times, with Annette Gregg, MPI’s senior vice president of experience.
“The Thought Leaders Summit has always been a must-attend event thanks to our determined partners,” says Kevin Kirby, executive director of the MPI Foundation. “The education offered during the summit typically represents a relevant industry issue for a personalized discussion. Given the pandemic backdrop, we made a strategic decision to accommodate the experience within WEC Grapevine.”
By blending the Thought Leaders Summit with WEC, Kirby says participants will still receive the personalized education of WEC with a broad selection of topics.
“But we’re also able to allow a senior group of professionals to meet one another—something that otherwise wouldn’t necessarily happen,” he says.
The Thought Leaders Summit benefits the MPI Foundation. Special thanks to sponsors and partners of the summit, including MGM Resorts International, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, Visit Dallas, Visit Phoenix, the Greater Fort Lauderdale CVB and American Airlines.
