PAUL, Minn., Feb. 15, 2021—Registration for the 2021 Ratchet+Wrench Management Conference is now open with the start of Deal Week 2021, which features agenda, speaker and event announcements, as well as discounted and bundled ticket options for this year’s conference, set for Sept. 9-11 at the Hyatt Regency Downtown in Minneapolis.
Deal Week runs through Friday.
“This is the sixth year of the Ratchet+Wrench Management Conference, and we’re excited about the evolutions the event has made and how we feel this year will reach an entirely new level in terms of the opportunity and value provided to our attendees,” Bryce Evans, vice president of content and events at 10 Missions Media, said. “We have a lot of new things in store, but the goal of the event remains the same: to provide our readers with the knowledge, motivation and tangible strategies to push their businesses forward.”
Nearly 30 speakers are slated to deliver two keynotes and 45 presentations, including 15 mini-workshops in the all-new BUILD content track designed to help attendees work through pressing constraints in their businesses.
“Our content aims to build a true peer-to-peer learning environment, similar to our magazine in that people can learn from other shop owners on best practices and key ways to improve,” 10 Missions Media editorial director Anna Zeck said. “With our team’s involvement in the industry, we’re able to hone in on the topics that matter most to our audience and put together our agenda to match it.”
The agenda for the conference is live at rwconference.com, as well as information on some new features coming to this year’s event.
