Golf Inc. Strategies Summit Testimonials
The Golf, Inc. Summit delivered as promised. The 'who's who' of the golf industry, a great venue, insightful discussion, incredibly well organized, not a detail missed. There is no better place to meet and hear directly from the giants of the golf industry."
- Regina Sosing, The Bridge Lady, Partner & VP of Marketing, Links Bridges
I have been attending the Golf Inc. Conference since 2010 and have found them to be the best networking conference in the industry. While the PGA Merchandise show is massive, the Golf Inc Conference is small enough where you can touch and interact with top the industry professionals and not have to weed through the maintenance staff part of the industry. I have been attending the show for 11 years and always pick up something new from the seminars.
PS. The show is always held at a top golf resort, is professionally run and a fun experience and would recommend them to anyone who wants to both learn and network with the top people in the industry.”
- Steve Ekovich, Executive Managing Director & Partner, Leisure Investment Properties Group
This was my first time attending the Golf Strategies Summit and it was amazing. Along with networking with those in the industry, I learned new strategies in the business of golf, facility management, hospitality and cutting edge trends in the market. I also appreciated sharing some of the nuisances of creating an inclusive and welcoming environment. I look forward to participating again next next year. “
- Linnet Carty, Director of Inclusion & Community Engagement, PGA of America
