AACE International is excited to announce that the 2017 Annual Meeting’s Opening Keynote Speaker will be Frank Abagnale.

Frank Abagnale is a renowned cybersecurity and fraud prevention expert, bestselling author and subject of Catch Me If You Can. He provides entertaining insight into his life as the notorious imposter of the 1960s; a thrilling story told in the award‐winning movie and Broadway musical, Catch Me If You Can. By age 21, Abagnale was known as America's most gifted con man, successfully impersonating an airline pilot, pediatrician, stockbroker, college professor, and assistant attorney general, all while cashing $2.5 million in forged checks. Audiences will experience an emotional roller coaster ride as he describes his escapades and reveals how he learned to live on the right side of the law.

Registration is now open for the 2017 Annual Meeting, which will be hosted at the Hyatt Regency Orlando, June 11-14, 2017.  Join professionals from across the globe for the premiere event on total cost management where you’ll learn from the innovative work of peers, national, and international leaders. This is a great chance to gain insight into current tools and techniques used by industry leaders in managing and controlling projects and programs. Return with takeaways to put these principles into practice. 

The Annual Meeting will also feature a variety of networking events, over 100 hours of peer-reviewed technical paper presentations, and an exhibition hall.  Justin Newton, the executive in charge of project management, planning, and controls at Walt Disney Imagineering, will be giving the Tuesday Keynote Address at the 2017 Annual Meeting.

As always, members receive the best rate. If you register for more than one seminar or a seminar and the Annual Meeting, joining AACE will not only save you money on the registration, but you’ll get all of the benefits of membership.
