The 22nd NIC National Conference is happening at a pivotal time. With a presidential campaign in full swing, an unsteady economic recovery, ongoing deficit reduction debates, and continued pressures for - and experiments in - healthcare reform, it's more important than ever to understand both the challenges and opportunities in today’s evolving landscape.

Whether you're an owner, operator, lender or investor you share the desire to deliver great value to your customers. For owners and operators success means having the right plan in place, becoming the best of the best and the access to capital to make it all happen; for lenders and investors its knowing what the best of the best looks like.

A Must-Attend Event

As the industry's signature deal-making event, the 22nd NIC National Conference will again create unmatched access for owners and operators of seniors housing and nursing care properties to network and meet with debt and equity capital providers interested in the sector.

Last year 78% of conference attendees expected to do a deal as a result of contacts and conversations made at the event. – 2011 NIC Annual Conference Attendee Survey

With dedicated meeting areas, scheduled time for meaningful conversations, unparalleled networking opportunities and a focused mission of bringing like-minded operators and investors together to discuss and close business, this is the perfect environment to make deals. Add to that the valuable educational sessions, and every minute of this event is about helping you continue to deliver value in an evolving landscape. Join more than 1,750 of your peers for the most significant industry event of the year.

More detailed information regarding General and Breakout Sessions will soon be available.

Ensuring a Deal-Making Environment

NIC events, including the 22nd National Conference, are intentionally focused on creating opportunities for owners, operators and developers of seniors housing and care properties to interact with sources of capital and with service providers critical to the process of buying, selling, developing, valuing, lending, financing and investing in the sector. To insure that conference attendees can focus on transactional issues related to the seniors housing and healthcare industry, and at the request of conference attendees, NIC will implement the following policy.

It is the policy of the NIC to preserve and enhance the conference experience of its core constituents – capital sources, owner/operators, and those who can verify that they directly support seniors housing and care transactions. Accordingly, with respect to any other attendee (generally, a "non-transactional attendee"), a premium registration fee shall be charged and collected. For more information please see Non-Transactional Attendee Policy.
