Are We Actually Hosting a LIVE Conference? That Would Be a YES.
For real. The stage is set. The program has been developed. Cadillac has stepped up to be our Official Sponsor host. Let’s pray that California will continue to roll back restrictions so we are ALLOWED to gather. It appears that will be the case since events in California have resumed their bookings.
The GCLA Spring Conference is coming. It has a theme: We Move California – LIVE! The sessions will focus on regaining lost business in all areas of transportation from luxury to business travel to retail, shuttles and charter and we’ll bring you the people with the intel to present you the facts.
Here’s the skinny:
The GCLA Spring Conference will be hosted at the Orange County Hyatt Regency, Huntington Beach on Tuesday, March 30th, 2020. Here is a video that pretty much says it all with respect to the location:

This event is CAPPED at 200 people so we will have to prioritize attendance the only way we know how, on a first-come, first served basis. We do have a registration form created for you so sign up now: https://www.gcla.org/we-move-california-live.
We wish to thank our official sponsor, Cadillac. For without their support, we would not have the means to make this live event happen, thus we would continue to be cut off from seeing you in person – a very depressing thought.
Looking ahead, we are also launching the GCLA Expo which is a larger version of our spring conference to include an exhibit area for suppliers as well as an expanded 2-day conference complete with all the networking trappings you’ve come to expect at industry shows. For all of this we are creating a brand-new event website to be up and running in the next week. In the meantime, please make note of it: www.gcla.show.
As you can see, the GCLA is growing in its optimism and there’s good reason. In the month of January, the GCLA renewed 70 percent of its 2020 membership PLUS we are welcoming 32 FIRST TIME MEMBERS. How is this possible when mobility is at a mandated halt and operators are in dire shape? It’s because our constituents know that we have to fight our way back to a robust economy and save our industry. We need each other more than ever. We need strong leadership and we need a plan. And, most of all, our people need to know someone has their back. Our job is just beginning for 2021 but we are pointed in the right direction and cannot wait to see your shining faces this spring.
Stay Strong. We are in this to win this!
