The Auto Care Association’s Paint, Body, and Equipment Specialists (PBES) community announced registration is open for its 2022 PBES Conference scheduled for May 17-18 in Orlando, Florida, at the Hyatt Regency Orlando. This year’s PBES Conference is part of Auto Care Connect, the Auto Care Association’s largest industry gathering that brings together four conferences in one location to maximize networking, collaboration and educational opportunities for enhanced industry connections, the association says.
The annual PBES Conference brings together leaders of the automotive aftermarket paint, body and equipment industry for a conference focusing on education, networking and exposure to industry products and services in its Innovation Fair.
All PBES Conference attendees are also granted access to the Auto Care Connect Industry Reception from 5:30-7 p.m. on Wednesday, May 18, which will bring together industry professionals from across the auto care supply chain for an evening of networking and reconnecting with peers.
One of the many conference highlights is an Innovation Fair where PBES vendors and solution providers have the opportunity to showcase their company’s products and services by securing a table top for the PBES Innovation Fair. It is held in conjunction with the majority of PBES Conference networking events and allows for attendees to connect and engage with service providers to explore business solutions and enhancements.
There will also be industry roundtable discussions — open dialogues that provide PBES Conference attendees the opportunity to join industry-leading distributors, manufacturers, WDs and manufacturers’ reps to share knowledge and ideas that will impact future business and industry success.
Early-bird discounts are available on the PBES Conference registration rate by registering by Sunday, April, 17. The deadline to reserve a room at the Hyatt Regency Orlando at the discounted group rate is Friday, April 15. Rooms are limited and subject to availability.
