Welcome to the Region 6 Conference!
We're excited to welcome business educators, administrators, and leaders from across Region 6 to Southern Nazarene University and the Oklahoma City area for two days of learning, networking, and great conversation.
This year's theme, The AI Revolution: Reshaping Business, Reinventing Education, and Transforming Our World, invites us to explore what's next for business and higher education. And yes, we're having an AI-themed conference in 2026, but actual humans will still be doing the presenting.
Beyond the sessions, this conference is about connecting, sharing what's working at our institutions, and learning from one another. Come ready to exchange ideas, build meaningful connections, and be inspired by the great work happening across our region. We want you to leave SNU energized, encouraged, and with something valuable you can take back to your campus.....because a good conference should give you more than a name badge and a tote bag.
On behalf of SNU and ACBSP Region 6, we can't wait to welcome you to campus!
