The MSO Symposium has announced that Michael Normlye, senior director of economic research for Nasdaq, will be the keynote speaker at its 14th annual event to be held Monday, Nov. 3 at Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
As part of the Economic Research group, Normyle works with Nasdaq’s chief economist in helping clients, internally and externally, understand the market implications of macroeconomic developments and forecasts. Normyle’s expertise in economic cycle forecasting, including business cycles and inflation cycles, will provide a fresh and in-depth perspective on the latest in the state of the U.S. economy, with a look at the impact of U.S. trade policy on the market, what it means for the collision repair industry, as well as provide explanations for record-high U.S. equity prices amid economic crosscurrents.
Nasdaq’s keynote presentation, “Global Uncertainty & Tariffs: Economic Implications for Companies and Markets” sponsored by I-CAR, will follow the welcome breakfast and networking hour sponsored by LKQ Corporation.
A lineup full of uniquely informative presentations and discerning panel discussions will take place throughout the day, providing industry leadership knowledge for business guidance and direction.
Surrounding these sessions are a number of networking opportunities including a plated luncheon hosted by PPG; an afternoon break; and a pre-dinner cocktail reception.
This year’s event has already generated a lot of interest, and MSO Symposium staff are encouraging qualified industry stakeholders to register as soon as possible, seating is limited. This is a “closed” meeting; those invited to attend include:
- Owners, executives, or managers of any size multi-shop operation (MSO)
- Leadership of an independent collision repair facility operating with greater than $3 million in annual sales
- Insurance company representatives
- OEM vehicle manufacturer representatives
The only exceptions to this list is the limited number of sponsors that help underwrite the program.
For those attending the AAPEX/SEMA show that same week, note the MSO Symposium is independent of that event and does require a separate registration.
