Building Bridges: Leadership, culture and momentum under pressure

In high-stakes environments, teams don’t win on talent alone—they win on trust, shared standards, and the ability to respond when things get hard. Drawing on lessons from elite sport and organizational leadership, Pinball shares practical ideas leaders can use to build unity, strengthen culture, and create momentum—even when the room is diverse, the pace is fast and the pressure is real.

Celebrating the Future of Convenience

New for 2026, the Industry Dinner will also recognize the 2026 Future Leaders in Convenience + Car Wash, honouring individuals who are already making an impact and shaping what’s next for our industry.

Join us in celebrating their achievements and supporting the next generation of convenience industry leaders.
