Inaugural CFMA Southwest Regional Conference

9.13.15 - 9.15.15 Renaissance Long Beach Hotel   Dear Colleague, The San Diego, Orange County, Valley of the Sun, Las Vegas and Albuquerque CFMA chapters have joined together to provide our Inaugural CFMA Southwest Regional Conference. Together, we are committed to delivering the best networking, education, and training experience of any kind in the field of construction accounting and finance. We understand the challenges Construction Financial Managers face and we realize you do not have the time or resources to stay abreast of all aspects of what that job entails. That is why we created this annual event. This year’s conference will include two information-packed days, including expert keynote speakers who provide great insight about topics such as succession planning, banking and bonding, legal, technology, human resources and overall industry changes and updates. You have no-doubt been very aware of how changing market demands are forcing change on how you do business!

Happy 4th of July from VoS CFMA!
