Proforma, Cleveland, announced that it will hold its annual Convention and Family Reunion live and in-person at the Gaylord Palms in Orlando, Fla., Aug. 8-11, 2021. The Convention theme for the event will be “Together,” embracing the opportunity to come together as a group after the extended period of distancing.
After the successful completion of a company-wide virtual event held April 6-8, 2021, the company announced that it was bringing back its live event for the summer of 2021. This decision was only made after a series of deliberations and discussions with Proforma leadership and Proforma’s Owner Advisory Council, Proforma owners elected to elected to regional representation by their peers.
With the increased access to COVID-19 vaccines, and the shift to lessen strict protocols on travel and quarantine bans, as well as precedents being set for live events currently being conducted, the organization made the decision to offer an in-person convention this summer. While some considerations may be made to allow for streaming or virtual attendance to accommodate those still unable or unwilling to travel, the event is planned to include the same dynamic energy, education, networking and celebrations as it has in years past.
Program is working closely with the Gaylord Palms to adhere to and enhance safety precautions, including social distancing protocols, sanitation efforts, contactless interactions and personal preference for individual considerations.
“It will be exciting to have our member owners, sales representatives, support staff, supplier partners and special guests come together in one location to celebrate the achievements of the individuals, as well as the organization, over the past year,” said Proforma CEO Vera Muzzillo. “This year’s convention will also be a celebration of resilience and perseverance as a testament to the true power of the Proforma family.”’
We are extremely excited that Proforma has decided to hold its Annual Convention and Family Reunion as a live event,” said Rachel Zabala, co-owner of Proforma Key Solutions in New Orleans, Multi-Million Dollar Club Member and Proforma’s Past Owner Advisory Council President. “It will be a welcome interaction on the heels of the challenging COVID-19 quarantine and gathering restrictions. It will provide us all with the valuable, socially-distanced, networking we so desperately need, and allow us to solidify powerful relationships that will help us overcome our recent challenges.”
