Message From Our President
Dear Surety Friends,
I am delighted to invite you to the 2026 NASBP West Meeting September 9-11 at the beautiful Omni Barton Creek Resort in Austin, Texas. We’ve designed this year’s Fall Meetings to elevate your experience with industry-focused content and exceptional networking opportunities.
We are thrilled to bring back and introduce several exciting features this year:
- Roundtable Discussion Happy Hour: Join us on Wednesday afternoon prior to the Welcome Reception to sit down with surety leaders. This casual setting is perfect for discussing hot topics in an interactive way.
- Surety School Alumni Happy Hour: New this year! A special Thursday afternoon gathering for graduates of the NASBP Surety School to reconnect and catch up with old classmates.
- Thursday Afternoon Activities: Choose your own adventure on Thursday afternoon.
- World-Class Golf: Hit the links for a tournament at the Barton Creek Golf Club, consistently ranked among the very best in Texas.
- Margaritas & Salsa Workshop: Not hitting the golf course? Join us for a lively hands-on group class. Learn the secrets to crafting the perfect margarita and fresh salsa. Co-Hosted by Women in Surety (WIS).
- Friday Finale: The meeting will wrap up on Friday morning with a sit-down breakfast and a can't-miss keynote session, leaving you ample time to catch a flight or enjoy the afternoon exploring Austin.
To help you map out your days, please review the schedule at a glance below, full agenda information will be posted in the coming weeks.
Also, don't miss the opportunity to participate in the NASBP Sales Workshop which will be held immediately prior to the West Meeting. This highly interactive workshop is only offered every few years and is designed specifically for surety bond producers and surety company underwriters who want to sharpen their business development skills, strengthen client relationships, and differentiate themselves in a competitive marketplace.
We can't wait to see you in the Texas Hill Country!
