Annual Event XBO Experience to be Hosted by NSCA for the Second Time
The National Systems Contractors Association (NSCA) and Ignite are set to co-host the second annual XBO (Excellence in Business Operations) Experience, an industry event aimed at equipping emerging leaders in the professional audiovisual (Pro AV) sector with advanced business operations knowledge and leadership skills.
The XBO Experience will take place at the Downright Austin Hotel in Austin, TX, from October 28-29. The event is open for registration and applications for the Jeff M. Kindig Future Leaders Scholarship, which covers the cost of attendance for first-time attendees. The deadline for scholarship applications is Aug. 15.
The XBO Experience is designed for emerging leaders, business operators, and young professionals who have recently taken on leadership roles in Pro AV integrators and technology firms. The event aims to help these leaders advance their careers, drive innovation, and eliminate barriers for young professionals to rise to leadership roles.
The XBO Experience offers a variety of interactive learning activities, providing industry challenges with real-world relevancy. Discussions will cover topics like leading with confidence, leveraging technology, project management, risk management, and more. Attendees will learn about actionable strategies and leadership skills that can be applied directly to their roles.
Participants will also have the opportunity to form new connections with other industry professionals, continuing to exchange ideas and sharpen their leadership skills. The XBO Experience is a platform for emerging leaders to build skills and knowledge for future leadership positions.
The XBO Experience is a collaboration between NSCA and Ignite, and it reflects the legacy of Jeff M. Kindig, who was a strong advocate for equipping young professionals with the tools they need to succeed in the Pro AV industry.
