(JULY 1, 2020) - ECI Software Solutions’ Connect event in November is still going ahead as planned, and the technology solutions company has announced a star keynote speaker.

Connect 2020 is the premier user conference for all ECI customers and will take place from November 16-18 at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. This year’s event will focus on ‘Getting Back to Business Together’ and include two days of hands-on training, a vendor expo, a customer service center and an ECI technology lab.

In a video message, ECI CEO Ron Books said that had been some uncertainties due to the evolution of the COVID-19 situation, but that The Cosmopolitan has now confirmed it will be fully operational to host the conference.

“Rest assured, we are actively preparing to create a safe and secure conference experience for everyone,” he added.

He also announced this year’s keynote speaker, who will be a familiar name to those in the US – former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback and four-time Super Bowl winner Terry Bradshaw, who is now a well-known TV analyst.

The timing of ECI’s Connect could mean there are two major business products events taking place in Las Vegas at the same time. Cleaning association ISSA was originally due to hold its 2020 North America show in Chicago in October. However, it is now sounding out stakeholders about switching to Las Vegas, and, if this happens, the timing will coincide with ECI’s conference. - (OPI)
