The I&E Experience

This morning's keynote presentation is sponsored by ARI

  

The Annual Business Meeting at NAFA’s Institute & Expo will present NAFA President Bryan Flansburg, CAFM®, who will share NAFA's accomplishments from 2017 with the audience and will detail important fleet and mobility efforts on the horizon. NAFA's Distinguished Service and Excellence in Education awards will be presented, as well. Afterward, stay for an inspiring and entertaining presentation from keynote presenter Jody Urquhart.

 

  

An annual highlight of I&E, NAFA's Chapter Appreciation Luncheon, returns today at 12:15 in the third floor ballroom! New for 2018, be a part of the Rise Against Hunger Charity Event, sponsored by the NAFA Foundation. The luncheon will also include the presentation of NAFA's Outstanding Chapter Service Awards, celebrating two individuals who exemplified the qualities of being a dynamic NAFA Chapter member and volunteer.

 

  

Tonight, the recipients of NAFA's 2018 Fleet Excellence Awards will be chosen. The Fleet Excellence Awards (or FLEXYs for short) were designed to shine a spotlight on those who have impacted fleet management in both the corporate and public fleet segments during the previous year. Join us at the Anaheim Marriott and celebrate fleet and mobility’s leading lights.
