Welcome to the 2023 CVBBA Annual Conference!
Our committee and Board of Directors have been working hard for our members and we are looking forward to seeing everyone at our annual conference this September in a new location – Raleigh! Don’t miss out on this chance to learn, connect, and succeed. Register now and see firsthand how attending this premier event can benefit your business.
Our theme for the 2023 conference is Collaborate & Conquer. We learn early on that teamwork is how to win. When everyone is in sync and working toward a common goal, the benefits of bringing together a group of people, talents, and ideas can be powerful. In business, (and in life), when brilliant minds, with big ambitions, work towards a common goal, amazing things happen!
Come join us at the 2023 conference, to network, learn, collaborate, conquer, and clear the path to winning!
“Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.”
– Henry Ford
