Registration is now open and spa industry professionals can lock in early bird registration rates for the event, which will be held from May 9-11 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, NV.

“The unique perspectives this lineup of speakers has to offer will provide the motivational energy our industry needs as it continues to flourish and thrive,” said ISPA President Lynne McNees. “Attendees will walk away with a solid list of takeaways that will elevate both personal and professional growth.”

Neil Pasricha will take the main stage on day one of the event. Pasricha is an intentional living expert whose current work focuses on gratitude, happiness, failure, resilience, connection and trust.

Erica will help time-starved leaders in attendance understand how to sharpen their connectional intelligence skills to become a super-connector who will accelerate innovation and break down silos to keep teams aligned, motivated and accountable.  

On day three, attendees will hear from Ben Nemtin, a mental health advocate who believes that all humans have ups and downs. Ben will share his powerful story and the journey of “The Buried Life” initiative which grew from making 100 impossible dreams possible into a global movement.
