Magic Johnson to Keynote at NBAA-BACE

 

 

The 2019 National Business Aviation Association Convention & Exhibition (NBAA-BACE) will host a compelling roster of speakers throughout the event’s two keynote sessions, with NBA legend and entrepreneur Earvin “Magic” Johnson delivering the Day 1 Keynote on the show’s opening day, Tuesday, October 22nd.

“Magic Johnson’s career, both in sports and in business, has been built around a dedication to leadership by example and service to others,” NBAA President and CEO Ed Bolen said. “We look forward to hearing his perspectives, including with regard to how business aviation has been instrumental in his work to build his business enterprises and invest in communities.”

Johnson also serves as chairman and founder of the Magic Johnson Foundation, which is dedicated HIV/AIDS awareness and educational programs.

Additional speakers at this year’s keynote sessions, which will open the show’s first two days live from the show floor, include aviation visionary Yves “Jetman” Rossy; inspirational and record-setting pilot Barrington Irving; entrepreneurial pioneers and aviation enthusiasts Ross Perot, Jr., Steuart Walton, Sky Dayton and others; and returning speaker Eric Allison, head of aviation programs at Uber Elevate. The Day 1 keynote will be held at 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 22, while the Day 2 keynote begins at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 23.

The 2019 edition of NBAA-BACE will also feature a sprawling exhibit floor at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC), showcasing an extensive variety of products, services and state of the art technologies, as well as dozens of education sessions. Attendees will also find two aircraft displays - one inside the LVCC and the second at nearby Henderson Executive Airport (HND) - allowing for side-by-side comparison of dozens of aircraft used to support a broad array of businesses.
