As I prepare for NWES 2025, I am more excited than ever about expanding the show’s reach. The Pacific Northwest is a remarkable destination—known for its breathtaking beauty, incredible businesses, and forward-thinking, entrepreneurial spirit. Our region is home to leaders and innovators who are redefining industries, and I believe NWES reflects that same energy. Let’s lead from the PNW and showcase the power and potential of this community.

Why This Event Matters
NWES is more than a gathering—it’s an ecosystem where learning, connection, and innovation intersect. Meetings and events don’t just happen; they are catalysts that drive business objectives, foster partnerships, and ignite growth. Human connection and intelligence are at the heart of this industry. At NWES, it all comes together—the ideas, people, and conversations that inspire real change.

Our Vision for NWES
Our vision is to elevate and strengthen the event and meeting ecosystem, not just in the Pacific Northwest, but on a national scale. Through our four pillars—Education, Connection, Inspiration, and Innovation—we empower professionals, foster relationships, fuel creativity, and drive new approaches in the event space. The Pacific Northwest, with its focus on sustainability, creativity, and leadership, is the perfect place to lead this movement.

At its core, NWES is about community. The PNW’s spirit of collaboration and “can-do” attitude is what makes this event so powerful. From seasoned professionals to the newest innovators, this is where human connection flourishes. Together, we are more than the sum of our parts.
