“These semi-live virtual sessions are unlike the endless video calls we’ve all been a part of since early 2020, as the Virtual Conference Center and Virtual Exhibit Hall settings you will experience represent the state-of-the-art in presentation and interactive technology,” said Damon Lester, President of NAMAD.
The event aims to support auto dealers through education and networking, and to help the next generation of minority auto dealers in understanding current and future markets. Skill-building and scholarship opportunities are key points to be covered within the event. Closing out the conference will be the Diversity Volume Leadership Awards, A NAMAD/IHS Markit annual event that recognizes vehicle manufacturers who market their products directly to the ever-growing group of minority vehicle buyers.
The virtual speaking sessions, discussions, panels and exhibits will all be hosted on an intuitive, user-friendly virtual platform powered by vFairs, which mimics an in-person event.
“We’re extremely grateful to be the chosen platform to power NAMAD’s Virtual Mini-Conference. The work they do is extremely important in supporting minority entrepreneurs and we’re glad to offer a platform that will help them continue to grow their businesses,” said Muhammad Younas, CEO of vFairs.
