The 2021 GBAC is shaping up to be like no other, and we thank those of you who have submitted presentations. We would like to extend the deadline to Monday, August 23, to allow for more time and submissions before we finalize our arrangements with the Flamingo.
We recognize that some of you may have concerns about the current pandemic situation. While Las Vegas is surely a melting pot, the number of cases is currently declining, down 23% as of today in Clark County, and the recent spike has been subtle compared to many parts of the country. The City of Las Vegas has taken the health and safety of its visitors seriously, and the major resorts have unified their efforts in this regard. See Caesars Entertainment’s (who operates the Flamingo) protocols here.
We will also be recording presentations (and taking pre-recorded presentations) for access to registrants after the conference is over. We are unfortunately not able to offer a real-time virtual option. If you are not yet sure you would like to attend, you can make that decision at a later time, but we would greatly appreciate your registration. Early registration is due Tuesday, September 14.
As a non-profit organization that’s only source of income is through conference activities, sponsorships, and member donations, we encourage you to register or otherwise help as you see fit. If you would like to sponsor the conference directly, you can do so here, or if you would simply like to donate or sponsor the GBAA more broadly, you can visit the link here. If you would like to discuss sponsorship opportunities directly, email the Conference Chair, Daron Duke, at daron@farwestern.com.
We look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas!
