Kurt Warner: We are thrilled to welcome NFL Hall of Fame quarterback
Kurt Warner for a fireside chat. Warner will share his story of resilience and leadership, offering insights that translate far beyond the football field. This event will be a convention highlight you won’t want to miss.

Celebrating 75 Years of Connection: This year’s convention is not just a gathering — it’s a celebration of 75 years of innovation, collaboration, and
growth within the shortline farm equipment industry. We’ll honor our history while looking ahead to an even stronger future. Looking for entertainment? Las Vegas has it all — from world-class shows and concerts on the Strip to the Neon Museum, where you can walk through the city’s vibrant history in lights.

Easy to Access, Easy to Enjoy: With Harry Reid International Airport just minutes away, traveling to Las Vegas is convenient and affordable. Our host venue, the Cosmopolitan Hotel, offers modern luxury, outstanding dining, and a prime location in the heart of the Strip.

Networking in a City Built for It: Las Vegas is famous for world-class dining and entertainment, but the most impactful convention moments often happen in the hallways or over a shared meal. These conversations can spark ideas, collaborations, and opportunities that last well beyond the
event.

Business Conversations: The most impactful moments in Las Vegas may just take place in the hallways during casual chats with colleagues. Whether you’re discussing supply chain challenges or exploring new business opportunities, the insights gained in these informal exchanges are invaluable.

Educational Opportunities: This year’s convention program is packed with sessions designed to deliver fresh insights and practical strategies
for your business. Highlights include a high-energy opening breakfast
session with Grammy Award winner Jimmy Yeary, who will share lessons on leadership and teamwork through the lens of his music career. Breakout sessions will explore how manufacturers can leverage technology and data to drive better margins, apply AI tools beyond large language models, and build stronger e-commerce ecosystems. Attendees will also gain a roadmap for staying ahead in distribution with AI-powered solutions that can help
shortline manufacturers outpace full-line competitors.
