Being a nightclub consultant among our other services, it is important we follow industry conferences and events about the food and beverage part of the hospitality industry to stay current. This is especially true when it comes to the night club and bar business because it is ever changing much like the arts, entertainment and music industry. One of the annual events we follow and recommend you check out is the annual VIBE conference, which stands for “Very Important Beverage Executives.” Although it is still almost a year away, here are some excerpts from the folks over at Nightclub & Bar Magazine about it: “VIBE 2012 – taking place March 13-14 in Las Vegas – will feature Stephen Barth returning as Master of Ceremonies, bringing his energy and personal experience in this industry to the stage as your host. Peter Sheahan, founder and CEO of ChangeLabs, will deliver the Opening Keynote address, focusing on understanding and then capitalizing on the elements that drive patrons’ purchasing decisions. Another highlight will be Kimpton Hotels President and COO Niki Leondakis delivering the Industry Keynote, and offering up her own take on succeeding in today’s multi-faceted environment. Finally, Chip Eichelberger, CSP, Peak Performance, Motivation and Sales Strategist, will spark attendees to tap into motivational tools and tactics to keep their teams focused and forward-thinking, especially in challenging times.” You and your nightclub consultant can read more about the event here. “VIBE is where on-premise chain executives and national account sponsor/partners will be infused with a program full of fresh perspectives for their beverage business!” The conference program details can be found here if you are a nightclub management specialist, investor or press attendee.
