Meeting/Event Information
Registration is now open for OVBTA's 4th Quarter 2026 Education Meeting & Holiday Auction on Tuesday, December 15th at the Marriott Columbus Northwest Hotel in Dublin, Ohio.
We're putting the finishing touches on an engaging agenda and speaker lineup, both of which will be posted to the registration page soon.
Attendees can look forward to another installment of our popular AI Pulse series. Suzanne Neufang, GBTA's CEO and Shane Downey, GBTA's Vice President of Government Affairs will be providing valuable and timely business travel industry insights and you can also expect updates from John Glenn Columbus International Airport and BCD Travel, our 4th Quarter Spotlight Sponsor.
And, of course, our annual Holiday Auction returns just in time to help you discover that perfect gift while supporting a great OVBTA tradition. Don't miss this opportunity to learn, connect, celebrate and bid on unique auction items.
We will also provide a preview of our 2027 goals and programming. As always, the day will be filled with valuable education, meaningful networking and a strong return on your investment of time and membership.
We’ve introduced a separate complimentary registration for the networking event. You only need to sign up for this if you are not attending the Education Day. If you are registered for Education Day, your networking attendance is already included—no need to register twice.
A sincere thank you to our annual sponsors, who will be featured on our banner display throughout the year and in our social media. We also extend our sincere gratitude to the Marriott Columbus Northwest Hotel for their generous sponsorship of this meeting. Additional sponsorship opportunities are available—our communications reach an audience of over 800, so please let us know if you're interested.
We look forward to seeing you in Dublin, OH this December!
