NIOP’S ANNUAL CONVENTION
Looking Ahead to NIOP CON 2027
After the incredible momentum and success of NIOP CON 2026, we’re already looking ahead with excitement to what’s next.
This past year’s convention brought together 500 attendees from across the supply chain for an experience filled with energy, insight, and meaningful connection. From impactful sessions covering tariffs, policy, logistics, biofuels, and the evolving seed oils conversation to memorable networking opportunities throughout the convention, NIOP CON 2026 reinforced the value of bringing our industry together face-to-face.
In 2027, we’ll build on that momentum.
We’re excited to continue the conversations, strengthen the relationships, and deliver another convention packed with timely industry insight and memorable experiences. And best of all, we’ll gather once again at everyone’s favorite destination — the Westin Kierland Resort & Spa in Scottsdale, Arizona.
If NIOP CON 2026 was any indication, NIOP CON 2027 promises to be another can’t-miss event for our industry.
Powerful Programming…
While the agenda for NIOP CON 2027 is still taking shape, one thing is certain: the programming will continue to focus on the topics that matter most to our industry.
In 2026, attendees heard from speakers who challenged perspectives, sparked important conversations, and delivered timely insights on the issues shaping today’s marketplace. The convention opened with an inspiring message from Derreck Kayongo, setting the tone for a week centered on leadership, purpose, and impact. Sessions featuring Michelle Miller and Claudia Larson tackled the evolving media narrative surrounding seed oils, while our Logistics Panel explored transportation trends and the growing role of AI across the supply chain. The convention concluded with the What’s the Future (WTF) Panel, helping attendees connect the dots across policy, tariffs, logistics, and emerging industry trends.
Building on that momentum, the 2027 agenda will once again deliver thoughtful, relevant programming designed to inform, challenge, and prepare attendees for what lies ahead. Combined with the networking and relationship-building opportunities that define NIOP CON, the experience promises to be both valuable and memorable.
At NIOP, we believe connection is currency — and powerful conversations are what keep our industry moving forward.
