Another insightful and successful annual conference, APMP! In my opinion, the best of the three I have attended thus far. A few high-level takeaways for me: 1. The competitive landscape across AI integration providers is quite impressive! If you don't have plans to leverage AI in some capacity, you likely will fall behind. 2. I personally welcome the growing list of continuing education opportunities and look forward to pursuing more. Excited for the Leadership Academy offering. I also applaud those who became Foundation-level certified this week, including two of my teammates. 3. Plenty of great agenda topics this year for the breakout sessions which made for "difficult" decisions on which ones to attend. Having multiple team members attend the conference is optimal to divide and conquer. 4. The Marriott New Orleans was an excellent venue. Great location, food, entertainment. The people of New Orleans were very friendly and welcoming. Did anyone else catch the knife-juggler/comedian on Bourbon? 5. Our local chapter, APMP - Greater Midwest Chapter (GMC) is the absolute best. It's a Midwest thing ;) 6. The Gators and Guns airboat swamp excursion sounded intriguing, no? 7. AI is going to replace all proposal management teams within 3-5 years. Kidding of course (but see takeaway number 1). Connect with me if we haven't already. Bonus - my team is seeking another proposal manager to join us. And we are growing! Very much looking forward to #BPCNashville2025 #proudtobeapmp #BPCNOLA #APMP #proposalmanagement
