In just three weeks, hundreds of independent school business officers and other leaders across the school will gather alongside business partners to connect, refresh and innovate at the 2024 NBOA Annual Meeting, February 25-28 at the Marriott Marquis in Atlanta, Georgia. With registration well over 1,200 by late January, attendance will likely approach or surpass the high-water mark of the 2019 NBOA Annual Meeting. This year’s gathering will feature three nationally renowned keynote speakers, seven deep dive sessions on leadership topics, and dozens of practical concurrent and goldmine sessions led by peers and industry experts.

New this year, the Business Solutions Showcase will take place Monday noon through Tuesday noon, and the Solutions Theatre, short presentations on practical answers to common problems, will run adjacent to the Showcase. The opening reception, NBOA Awards Luncheon and NBOA Breakfast promise to be one-of-a-kind opportunities to meet and mingle with peers across the U.S. and the world.
