Noble Financial Tenth Annual “X” Equity Conference Hits The Beach, Takes Over Club Med
Small cap
Seeking Alpha Analyst Since 2010
Noble Financial Capital Markets is celebrating three decades of business as it hosts its tenth annual Noble "X" Conference, buying out the entire 220-acre Club Med Sandpiper Bay resort in Palm Beach Florida. From July 19-22, 2014, Club Med's property will be exclusively used for the equity conference, which will feature new meeting formats and a host of other changes for corporate executives and international investors participating in this exciting event.
In addition to formal presentations and scheduled one-on-one meetings, the new format will feature assigned seating lunches and dinners to promote dialogue between executives and investors, as well as sector-specific breakouts and three social networking events.
"2014 is a special year for us from several perspectives," Mark Pinvidic, Noble's managing partner, stated in the press release. "Not only is it our 10th conference, it's also our 30th year in business. Taking over the entire Club Med resort is an exciting way to start the year. With the exception of the conference being held at the same time period for the last three years, virtually every other aspect of the conference will change for 2014."
While the conference is developed as an informational service and networking opportunity for small-cap companies and investors, the weekend won't be strictly business. Five of the last nine Noble "X" conferences were held at the Hard Rock Hotel in the high-energy environment of a casino - the 2014 conference will be a vastly different environment, mirroring the overall Florida Keys theme. Along with traditional conference activities, the 2014 conference will also feature a "sports and fitness" break with access to Club Med's 18-hole golf course, world-class tennis instruction and facilities (led by Gabe Jaramillo who has trained eight number-one players in the world including Andre Agassi and Monica Seles, and 28 top ten players), sailing, yoga, and even flying trapeze.
Other changes to the conference include:
• Round-trip shuttle service from Palm Beach International Airport
• Continuous dining & beverage (three restaurants) options from early morning through late night
• Advanced workout facility, resort, lap, and infinity pools
• Spouse / partner and children's programs to encourage attendees to bring their families
• Vastly expanded program and amenities at the same cost (or less with early registration) as past conferences
Noble emphasized that the only guests at the resort for the three-day period will be Noble Conference attendees, and said it believes that the new venue and activities will stimulate dialogue among participants that can be difficult to achieve at most other venues.
Noble is offering early registration for the first 40 companies that register or until August 15, whichever comes first. Early registration includes all of the above activities and features, up to three nights' accommodations at Club Med, and HDVideo LIVE Webcasting with extensive cost savings. As an extra bonus, an executive can bring his/her spouse/partner and children under two years (in the same room) at no additional cost.
"After each conference we solicit feedback and try and incorporate as many new elements as we can in order to deliver the value attendees are looking for," said Pinvidic. "We are confident that the program we can provide through Club Med will exceed expectations."
