The Bus Association of New York’s (BANY) Annual Meeting and Marketplace will be held November 7-9, 2021. This year our event will be at the iconic Otesaga Resort Hotel in Cooperstown, New York. We’ve all had a very challenging year and look forward to you joining us in November!
Our planning committee has worked diligently on top notch programming that will be of interest to all. Click on our tentative Agenda to see what we have planned for you.
The meeting agenda is filled with additional educational and informative presentations. We are inviting speakers from the New York State Department of Transportation and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to address our group. Representatives from the nation’s leading bus associations, the American Bus Association and United Motorcoach Association, will highlight the latest information on legislative and regulatory issues facing the industry.
Back by popular demand will be talented speakers, John Kennedy and Josiah Brown (the NY Sherpa). Specific seminar topics will be focused on sales and marketing, leadership as well as cybersecurity and ransomware. We are excited to offer these important and pertinent presentations that are sure to benefit all of our delegates.
Aside from the formal sessions, you will have the opportunity to browse vendor tables as well as step-on to a number of motorcoaches on display. Nothing is more valuable than networking with your colleagues and vendors.
And let us not forget, the BANY Marketplace where delegates have the opportunity to meet with operators in five-minute sessions. Whether you are a supplier or a tour and travel representative, this is your time to sell your product, destination or venue!
This is a “don’t miss” opportunity for all of us to come together to discover what is happening in our industry!
Valued vendors, suppliers and hospitality partners we are also offering a variety of sponsorships to meet your marketing needs.
