Registration for this year’s FPDA/ISD Joint Industry Summit is now open. Join the Fluid Power Distributors Association and the International Sealing Distribution Association in beautiful Lake Tahoe from September 23^rd– 26^thfor this can’t-miss industry event. It goes without saying that everyone seems to be getting busier—that’s a good thing! However, it is important to make time to get together to share our ideas, successes and challenges so we continue to benefit from the business relationships and friendships that only the FPDA provides.

Why should you attend this year’s FPDA/ISD Joint Industry Summit? Besides the natural draw of gorgeous Lake Tahoe and the surrounding High Sierras, the meeting content will truly take you to new heights. The educational workshops, a few of which will be member-driven TED-style sessions, along with inspiring and energizing keynote presentations will facilitate high-level networking and thought-provoking discussions.

With the direction of the Board of Directors, the groups have altered the agenda a bit, adding time for networking, member speakers, thought-provoking shorter sessions, and even company meeting space to allow our attending companies the opportunity to meet with prospects and customers one-on-one. They have also changed up the golf tournament, scheduling it for Sunday, September 23^rdwith a 12:00 p.m. shotgun, allowing more time on Tuesday afternoon to explore the area, meet with your business connections, and time to prepare for the 80s-themed Closing Party.

This looks to be a wonderful time filled with great business and leisure activities for all attendees. And, the groups are making it especially affordable for Distributors to bring multiple attendees so that companies can reap the maximum benefits from your attendance—so send the whole team! There is surely something for everyone at the 2018 FPDA/ISD Joint Industry Summit.
