NIRI Southwest Regional Conference 2019
Wednesday, August 21 to Friday, August 23, 2019
IR teams are amateur sleuths when it comes to tracking elusive financial data and finding clues to craft the perfect messaging. Sherlock was known for his proficiency and observational skills. Sound familiar? IR professionals must integrate finance, strategic communications and securities law compliance, and all accomplished while juggling tight deadlines.
We invite you to join us in Austin for the NIRI Annual Southwest Regional Conference where we will spend two days collaborating with IROs in your area, sharing best practices, being inspired by Thought Leaders throughout the US and re-invigorating your IR efforts and IR program planning for 2020.

IFB Booths by WPNT Communications
If you’re a CEO or CFO of a large or mid-cap company, chances are you’ll end up in a satellite media interview at some point on CNBC, Bloomberg or another network. The format can be daunting - staring into a television lens with an earpiece in your ear and a lavaliere microphone on your lapel - taking probing questions from a prominent news anchor miles away. There’s a right and a wrong way to do IFB satellite media interviews.
Stop by our booth at the conference and gain experience that can help you prepare your executives. We’ll show you how it works, conduct a simulated interview on your company and your topics, and give you some feedback and critique. And you can take home a video copy to share with friends and family. Try it!
