The EGC team has just returned from the mystical moors of Scotland, having concluded another successful annual National Meeting with Emerging Vision. Held for three days at the Turnberry Hotel & Resort, attendance numbered nearly 150. Franchisees, store managers, and leading vendors in the eyewear industry—along with Glenn Spina, CEO of Emerging Vision and his corporate team—gathered to network and share valuable tools to promote the company’s mission of providing eye care services and best-in-class eyeglasses, sunglasses, contact lenses, and accessories across all the markets the organization operates in the U.S. As this year’s meeting took place in Scotland, the proceedings had a “Braveheart” theme, driving home the message of developing the perfect strategy to overcome the competition and ensure continued success. New ideas were shared and every attendee walked away from the meeting feeling inspired and filled with a renewed sense of purpose for the future ahead. And, in what has become the highlight of the Emerging Vision National Meetings, an awards dinner was held to celebrate the wins for 2023. The team at EGC is already looking forward to the next annual meeting with this very engaged group of leaders in the optical industry.
