What's Not to Miss
at the Shows!
The Party
Monday, Feb. 3, 7:30 p.m.,
Tryst Nightclub, Wynn Las Vegas
Hosted by the NKBA, this event
is the perfect occasion to enjoy
an exotic waterfall location and

IBS Keynote Speaker and Opening Ceremonies
Tuesday, Feb. 4, 8 to 9:45 a.m., Las Vegas Convention
Center, South Hall - S4
IBS will open with a bang with Opening Ceremonies featuring
Cirque Fantastic, an acrobatic circus troupe that travels the world
delighting audiences with its distinctive performances, and keynote
speaker General Stan McChrystal, a four-star general, the former
commander of U.S. and international forces in Afghanistan and the
former leader of Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), which
oversees the military's most sensitive forces.
A one-of-a-kind commander with a remarkable record of achievement,
General McChrystal is widely praised for creating a revolution in warfare
that fused intelligence and operations. General McChrystal, a former
Green Beret, is known for his candor, innovative leadership and going
the distance. Called "one of America's greatest warriors" by Secretary of
Defense Robert Gates, few can speak about leadership, teamwork, and
international affairs with as much insight as he can.

Stacy Garcia, founder of KBTribeChat, attendees will progress through
the show floor to visit three exhibitors: Amerock Hardware, Cambria

"KBTribeChat is all about connecting everyone in the industry," said

* Stay loose and relaxed. Have fun with it.
* Low energy is a killer.
