KBC MPI Members Speak

“Membership in KBC MPI is a valuable resource for the meeting professional. The educational sessions provide timely information from nationally known experts. KBC MPI’s networking opportunities are a great opportunity to discuss common issues with your peers and meet suppliers.”

Yolanda Kennison, CMP, Independent Planner

“My 15+ year membership in KBCMPI has advanced every aspect of my career in the hospitality industry. From the contemporary and relevant education opportunities to invaluable lifelong relationships that go beyond business as usual. You can’t put a price on that but I will tell you it is worth far more than the cost of our yearly membership dues!”

Michele Bowling, French Lick Resort and Casino
