Mid-America Apartments
Annual Leadership Conference
Building On A Strong Foundation
Nearly 15 years ago, Mid-America Apartment Communities (MAA), a real estate investment trust that focuses on the acquisition, development, redevelopment, and management of multifamily homes, first contracted LEO Events to coordinate several years of its events. Like any good neighbor, LEO partnered with MAA on every detail, and as the organization grew, a need for a connective and energetic atmosphere for their Annual Leadership Conference became necessary. The goal was clear: MAA had to give its 450 attendees a fresh, fun experience that promoted connectedness among company leaders and employees. But they needed a trusted partner – they needed us.
Working closely with the MAA internal team, LEO ensures a successful program each year by:
- Developing a conference theme that supports the overall vision
- Overseeing vendor coordination and tradeshow management
- Handling the heavy lifting in logistics and operations for the conference – leaving the MAA team free to focus on conference goals, objectives, and sponsorship
- Executing a leadership dinner, divisional receptions and meetings, an off-site appreciation party, group excursions, and an awards gala
- Organizing transportation, meeting planning, speaker engagement, production, and food, beverage, and hotel management
