Individuals Will Be Recognized At Leadership Conference, Feb. 22 To 24
The NBAA has announced that the association’s Business Aviation Management Committee (BAMC) has selected two individuals as recipients of 2016 Leadership Conference Scholarships.
Each scholarship includes a value equivalent to $2,000 to cover expenses associated with attendance at NBAA’s 2016 Leadership Conference, taking place Feb. 22 to 24 in San Antonio, TX. The Leadership Conference is designed for current and future leaders in all facets of the business aviation industry, from aircraft operators to vendors who provide products and services within the industry.
The Leadership Conference Scholarship, now in its 12th year, is sponsored in 2016 by donations from the BAMC members. Representatives from each of these companies will be on hand at the Leadership Conference to recognize this year’s recipients.
