DEAR PARTNERS: Thank you for your continued support of the National Black MBA Association and your ongoing presence at our Annual Conference and Exposition. Every year we strive to create the most powerful career and educational event and, thanks to you, we continue to be the largest diversity recruitment and networking event in the country. Our 37th Annual Conference and Exposition held last September in Orlando, FL, was remarkable! This successful conference attracted nearly 8,000 business-minded attendees for an unparalleled week of networking, education and career growth. At the 38th Annual Conference and Exposition in New Orleans, LA, we expect to have yet another prodigious event as we focus on The Q Factor: Quality, A Leadership Paradigm. This year s conference theme highlights how imperative quality is on a daily basis, and stresses the need to not just be a leader, but to be a quality leader. Year-after-year we have been able to offer new and innovative programing, adding value to the experience of our attendees, sponsors and exhibitors. In doing so, we have been able to continually host one of the largest career expositions for Black professionals in the marketplace. We are excited to keep the momentum going this year in New Orleans, LA. This dynamic city has an inventive spirit, ready workforce and global connectivity to help you align yourself with qualified, ready-to-hire candidates. On behalf of the NBMBAA and its Board of Directors, I encourage you to exhibit at the 38th Annual Conference and Exposition, October 11-15, 2016 in New Orleans.
