Our annual conference, VenueConnect, takes place August 1-4 in Baltimore, Maryland, and we’re happy to announce our three keynote speakers.
Betsy Myers
Myers will be our opening keynote speaker and will speak during Part 1 of the Women in Leadership program. She served as a senior adviser to U.S. President Barack Obama’s election campaign. She joined the campaign in January 2007 as the COO tasked with the challenge of building a $100,000,000 organization and established the campaign with a business operational model and customer service mentality.
Curt Cronin, CDR (SEAL), USNR, MBA
Cronin has more than 16 years experience as a U.S. Navy SEAL and is an expert at maximizing human potential and synthesizing the strengths of a team to create unprecedented results in any context. He will lead two sessions at VenueConnect: “Building Unstoppable Teams” and a seminar for venue executives called “Leadership Under Fire.”
Jason Roberts
Roberts’ closing keynote session at this year’s Performing Arts Managers Conference (PAMC) was wildly popular, so we’re bringing him back so that everyone can experience his remarkable story. Roberts is the founder of the Oak Cliff Transit Authority, originator of the Better Block Project, co-founder of the Art Conspiracy and Bike Friendly Oak Cliff, and a former candidate for U.S. Congress. Please read our blog post profile for PAMC to learn more about him and his session.
