  • Welcome to the 36Th Annual IACP Conference!
    INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION MARCH 14 - 17, 2014 OF CULINARY PROFESSIONALS Welcome to the 36th Annual IACP Conference! In the last two years since our transition to self-management, MESSAGE IACP has been reinventing itself in many ways to better serve you. We’ve expanded our range of non-conference events and introduced new mentoring and affiliates programs. We are on the Contents cusp of launching our popular Speaker Series to the broader culinary communi- ty, and we have recently cleaned house by streamlining the organization’s Board governance structure and policies and procedures. All in the spirit of helping you better connect with the people, places, and knowledge you need to succeed! 2 As you’ll soon see, this year’s conference has undergone some exciting transfor- mations, too. At your request, we’ve introduced more interactive sessions, integrated the Culinary Expo into the fabric of everyday conference, parsed the Awards Gala into more digestible units (read: more cel- ebrating and less sitting), and expanded our digital media content. And to keep you from missing a single beat, we’re recording some of the conference’s most sought-after sessions so you can experience them once you return home. I truly hope these changes will make this year’s conference all the more rewarding for you. I very much look forward to connecting with you over the next few days! Cheers, Julia M.
