Nasdaq is again kicking off the annual MSO Symposium, as Senior Director of Economic Research Michael Normyle is set to take the stage Nov. 3 at Rio Hotel & Casino, a Destination by Hyatt.
As part of the economic research group, Normyle works with Nasdaq’s chief economist in helping clients, internally and externally, understand the market implications of macroeconomic developments and forecasts.
Normyle’s expertise in economic cycle forecasting, including business cycles and inflation cycles, will provide a fresh and in-depth perspective on the latest in the state of the U.S. economy, with a look at U.S. trade policy impacts on the market and what it means for the collision repair industry, as well as explanations for record high U.S. equity prices amid economic crosscurrents.
Nasdaq’s keynote presentation, “Global Uncertainty & Tariffs: Economic Implications for Companies and Markets,” sponsored by I-CAR, will follow the welcome breakfast and networking hour, sponsored by LKQ Corporation.
A line-up full of uniquely informative presentations and discerning panel discussions will take place throughout the day, providing industry leadership knowledge for business guidance and direction. Surrounding these sessions are a number of networking opportunities including a plated luncheon, hosted by PPG; an afternoon break; and a pre-dinner cocktail reception.
“The MSO Symposium brings industry stakeholders together to talk about what really matters — emerging trends, challenges and opportunities and we have created meaningful content for this year’s event," Michelle Sullivan, CEO of Certified Collision Group and an advisory board member, told Autobody News. "The goal is simple: spark conversations that turn into real, actionable strategies that shape the future of collision repair.”
This year’s event has already generated a lot of interest and MSO Symposium staff encourage qualified industry stakeholders to register as soon as possible. Seating is limited.
This is a “closed” meeting; those invited to attend include owners, executives or managers of any size multi-shop operation (MSO); leadership of an independent collision repair facility with greater than $3 million in annual sales; insurance company representatives; and OEM representatives.
The only exception is the limited number of sponsors that help underwrite the program.
For those attending the AAPEX/SEMA Show that same week, the MSO Symposium is independent of that event and does require a separate registration.
