5/5/23 Update
The FL RIMS Conference Committee is aware that there is an issue with the RITZ Carlton hotel booking system. Please send all hotel reservation requests to floridarims@gmail.com. Requests will be processed on a first come, first serve basis. We apologize for the inconvenience.
WELCOME TO THE 2023 FLORIDA RIMS CONFERENCE WEBSITE!
Hello, and happy spring! We would again like to thank you for your past support of our Florida RIMS Educational Conference and provide you with another update. The committee has been very busy working with the Ritz Carlton resorts to determine what our options are for the annual conference in July, considering the temporary closure of the Ritz Carlton Naples Beach Resort due to Hurricane Ian last September.
The good news is that we have been assured by the Ritz that the Beach Resort will be open and able to accommodate our 2023 conference, July 25-29, 2023, as originally planned! We are beyond thrilled about this, as we know that you will be, as well.
Your Florida RIMS Conference Committee is committed to working closely with representatives from The Ritz Carlton, so that we are fully aware of any unforeseen delays to their planned opening of the Beach Resort.
We will be sending out more information soon on how you can sign up to be a sponsor, submit a session proposal for review, sign up for the annual golf tournament, and participate in the networking raffle, among other things. In the meantime, keep these important upcoming dates in mind:
Registration opens for SPONSORS: April 24, 2023
Registration opens for RIMS MEMBERS: May 4, 2023
(you will need to provide your RIMS membership number for registration, which can be found in your member profile on the www.rims.org)
Registration opens for NON-MEMBERS: May 8, 2023
Rooms at the Beach Resort will go fast, so be sure to make a note of your registration date. You cannot book a room in the conference room block until you are registered. If you are not currently a RIMS member, this would be a great time to join your local chapter…you’ll get early access to registration AND a discount on conference registration.
We will continue to keep you informed, as we finalize the planning. The sponsor, speaker, golf, and networking raffle forms will be posted to the conference website soon, so please watch for those to be uploaded.

2023 Florida RIMS Educational Conference Chairperson
