With just over fourteen days to go until the 30th IHRSA Convention, we are ‘preparation San Francisco
The line-up of speakers and events promises to be one of the best yet.
Often viewed as a “bit of a jolly” to the States, we are determined that this years trip comprises a robust educational itinerary which builds skills and educates industry peers.
That’s why, for the first time this year, we’re providing a mentoring programme for operators to aid this. Key issues such as medical wellness and the female market, will be presented and debated, and brand new fitness trends will be demonstrated, such as Batuka (personally can’t wait to have a go at these new latin-inspired routines)!
There are some fantastic keynotes to look forward to also – Al Gore’s Chief speech-writer; Daniel Pink, will look at the science of motivation, best-selling author and business innovator; Tony Hsieh looks at delivering happiness and host of the “Amazing Race”; Phil Keoghan reflects on his “near death” experience and consequent life philosophy of making the most of every opportunity - sounds like a not-to-be-missed inspirational guy!
Outside of this full-on educational itinerary there’s plenty more to look forward to…
The trade show will be brimming with new products and previously unseen suppliers – can’t wait to have a ‘nose’ at what’s new in the industry!
The FIA will also be running some exciting networking events outside of the IHRSA schedule to provide a chance to kick back, catch up with industry peers and sample (quite literally) the culture of beautiful San Francisco…
All FIA members are invited to our “Welcome to San Francisco” Drinks Reception on Monday 14th, where we will toast to jetlag and a packed week ahead…
On the Tuesday, before the Convention kicks off, we will be hosting a Wine Tasting Tour around California
To find out more about any of these events and get booked on, just drop me an email or check out the FIA website.
Look forward to seeing you all at Heathrow for some early morning, bleary-eyed banter before the learning and fun begins!
Hayley Bevan, Events & Sponsorship Manager, FIA
