Letter from the Chair - Q3 2023

Happy September! 

It has been a busy Summer for all of us and we are gearing up for an even busier Fall season. The Chapter wants to thank everyone who took time out of their schedules and joined in-person and online events for the first half of the year. 

The DC Chapter is excited about the line-up of in-person and virtual (and even a hybrid) events we have planned for the rest of 2023! Based on feedback from members, we are moving some of our events to different days of the week and times and adding fun networking events back into the schedule!

While you will find our upcoming events listed below and more details on our website event page, I wanted to highlight some right here:

  • Our education program in September, Breakfast Bites, will be held on Thursday morning, September 28, at the Kaiser Permanente Center for Total Health in Washington, DC. There will be two exciting programs presented, breakfast, and a tour of the facility.
  • Our Annual Business Meeting and Industry Forecast on Thursday, November 16, will be held in the afternoon followed by a happy hour to close out the year of education programs. 

More social events are planned this Fall. We are bringing back our beloved Karaoke Night on October 18, which will be our IAEE Member Appreciation event. All IAEE active members (planners & suppliers) will receive free admission to the event. 

Our Chapter YPs will come together for an interactive roundtable discussion on November 8, and we invite everyone to mingle with them afterward. Stay tuned for more information on this event. 

Enjoy reading this newsletter. I look forward to connecting with you at one or many of our upcoming events!

  • I am a member of IAEE, and particularly the DC chapter of IAEE, because it is one of the most rewarding and fulfilling experiences I have ever encountered in this Industry. My membership with IAEE has taken me to places that I only dreamed of! Because of IAEE, I have been able to teach CEM classes all over the country and in other parts of the world! The Networking opportunities and the camaraderie of belonging to the DC chapter are HUGE benefits of membership. If I had to prioritize where to spend my “marketing dollars,” my first choice would be with IAEE.

  • I have been a member of IAEE for over 30 years, starting with the early NAEM days, to IAEM, and now through IAEE. Throughout this journey, the DC chapter has provided me with invaluable networking opportunities and educational experiences thanks to the incredible peers I've encountered. My interactions within and beyond the chapter have significantly contributed to my growth and have played a crucial role in shaping me into the successful professional I am today at Freeman. Freeman has collaborated with the local chapter in various capacities, and we have greatly valued the opportunity to support and work alongside such exceptional leadership. Our shared commitment is to deliver the highest quality service and education to our customers, incorporating the latest trends and data to ensure mutual success.

  • As someone deeply passionate about the world of exhibitions and events, being a part of IAEE holds immense importance to me. I have been a part of the organization for many years and have made some incredible connections and made some valuable friendships along the way. Because of IAEE, I have had the opportunity to teach globally and to have very special experiences that I will always appreciate. I highly recommend that if you are in the industry, you should be involved with IAEE!
