EBMA ANNUAL MEETING

 

The association holds an annual meeting that is educational in nature with sessions intended for both wholesalers and publishers members. The most important parts of the annual meeting are our “One-on-One Sessions,” designed to facilitate business discussions between wholesalers and publisher members. During the three days of these meetings, each wholesaler in attendance will meet with each publisher (and vice versa) for private eight-minute discussions. Presentations from industry professionals, educators and authors inform members on new trends in our market. Social events are planned to bring wholesalers and publishers together in informal settings. Each year the annual meeting is held in a location that allows for a relaxed atmosphere and promotes networking and learning.
