BSA Opens Registration for 2012 Annual Convention



Glen Ellyn, IL-The Bearing Specialists Association (BSA) is encouraging industry leaders to register now for the association's 2012 Annual Convention planned for April 29 - May 1 at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort and Spa in Bonita Springs, Florida.

Association leaders point out that there are fiscal and programming advantages to registering in 2011. Early registrants save on registration by leveraging the Early Bird rates for distributor members and participating manufacturers. By registering before January 1, 2012, these same early registrants are using 2011 dollars for 2012 expenses.

Early registration also allows manufacturers to have a Conference Table available for on-line appointments (registration is a pre-requisite for Conference Table assignment) and it allows distributors to reserve conference tables and times most important to them. BSA Conference Table Sessions of pre-scheduled, pre-planned private meetings between distributors and manufacturers are considered one of the highlights of each Annual Convention. Participants believe the face-to-face meetings are especially productive and, in recent years as budgets have grown tighter, have found that the ability to meet with a number of key players in one location is especially rewarding.

To facilitate early registration, BSA has launched the 2012 Annual Convention website, featuring a detailed look at the business program and networking opportunities. Drawing upon the "Technology Drives Productivity" theme, BSA has announced that technology forecaster and business strategist Daniel Burrus, founder and CEO of Burrus Research, will make the keynote presentation on business process transformation. Guy Blisset, global lead for wholesale distribution in IBM's Institute for Business Value, and Matthew Bookspan of Blacktip IT Services will also be presenters.

BSA Annual Conventions are the premier industry event for authorized distributors of bearing products and services and the manufacturers of those products, and the 2012 event is expected to be one of the best yet.
