The last time there was an in-person Spiral Duct Manufacturers Association annual meeting was in Nashville in 2019. This year, the meeting is taking place in San Diego from April 28 to 30.

The keynote speaker on Friday will be professional business coach and business building expert, George Hedley. He is the recognized authority on how to build a growing business into a company that consistently produces bottom-line results, profits and loyal customers.

He built his major construction company from $0 to $50 million dollars in only 7 years. For his accomplishments, George received the nationally recognized “Entrepreneur of the Year” award. To date, he has built over 500 projects, valued in excess of $750 million dollars, executed over 10,000 subcontracts, and owns and manages over 350,000 square feet of commercial and industrial buildings. 

But before the meeting even starts, you will have the chance to tour the Omni Duct factory in Buena Park on Thursday. Transportation for this day trip is being generously provided by the HVAC Duct Manufacturers Association at no charge to attendees.

Upon our return to the hotel, you will have a chance to refresh before we kick off the Annual Meeting with our reception and vendor displays on Thursday evening.

After the meeting on Friday, attendees will treat themselves to the Hops on the Harbor dinner cruise, featuring four local beers from Coronado Brewing Company with cuisine from a local chef. And on Saturday, SPIDA is arranging  group outings to the USS Midway Museum and San Diego Zoo.
