"I am excited to share that the NBPCA has created an annual prepaid conference that is 'of the industry, by the industry and for the industry,'" said Kirsten Trusko, NBPCA President and Executive Director. "In modeling after more established associations, this event provides a key platform to educate and put forth key industry messages. Our ability to deliver compelling content and exceptional speakers is proven and this venue will provide the perfect place to connect with colleagues and customers across the industry as well as with our Capitol Hill, government and third party contacts."
"This event was conceived by the NBPCA Board of Directors, which comprises 27 true drivers and thought leaders in the industry," said Jon Palmer, Chair of the NBPCA Board of Directors. "The goal is to further the NBPCA mission to Advocate, Educate, Protect and Promote Prepaid through the event and deliver unique content for attendees. The NBPCA profits will support our hard work on behalf of the entire industry."
Event supporter commitments to date include The Bancorp Bank, Blackhawk Network, First Data, Galileo Processing, Green Dot, Prepaid Solutions and Visa.
The 2012 NBPCA Annual Congress - The Power of Prepaid will provide a platform to advance the aims of prepaid as a whole. It will also provide a unique opportunity for prepaid industry leaders to connect with customers, prospects, colleagues and government officials, and to participate in content-rich sessions and networking events. NBPCA has partnered with the American Conference Institute, a leading conference provider with a specialization in working with associations and in prepaid.
