Business, Leadership & Entrepreneurship Conference

Yes, registrations are accepted on-site; however, we encourage you to register early to receive valuable conference information and to take advantage of the discounted pricing! Click the “Register” icon in the top right-hand corner of this page to get your tickets.

Discount pricing takes place throughout the year, with the best deal when you register before March 31st. In addition, we offer a student discount pass for $99! The average cost of a two-day conference is $1,000 – meaning EntreCon^® is already a very affordable option!

Yes! We believe learning together as a team is important to overall organizational success, which is why we offer the following price breaks: 1-5 tickets are normal price; 6-9 tickets are $25 off per ticket, and 10 or more tickets are $49 off. Please email the SCI Team at entrecon@studeri.org for more details.

We do offer 1-day passes, but they aren’t available until closer to the event date. We do this to ensure enough seats are available for all 2-day pass holders.

Due to the popularity of the event, we recommend that you register early, as there is always the possibility that the event will sell out (strictly due to venue capacities).

The registration fee allows access to all events and functions during the event and includes access to all breakout and keynote sessions, the EntreCon^® Awards Ceremony, all networking events, and a swag bag. VIP ticket holders get all of this plus unlimited access to a VIP lounge, and free parking!

If you would like to inquire about accessibility/request accommodation, please contact us at entrecon@studeri.org at least one week in advance of the conference.

All travel costs including air and hotel accommodations are the responsibility of the attendee. EntreCon^® has secured a block of rooms at the conference rate at three downtown hotels. Rooms in the conference room block are reserved for conference attendees. Detailed hotel information including a link and instructions to book your reservation can be found on our Accommodations page.

Preferred registration payment is by credit card. If you have a large group, we are happy to send an invoice directly to you to pay for all passes at one time. If you need to pay by check, please email us at entrecon@studeri.org to request an exception. We’re happy to work with you!

Registrations may be transferred to another employee in your company and requests for transfers of registration fees must be made in writing. Please email us at entrecon@studeri.org to request a ticket transfer.

Credit card processing problems are generally caused by a mismatch in the billing address of the credit cardholder. Please check that the address entered matches the billing address listed with your credit card provider or contact your credit card provider to authorize the charge.

We anticipate anywhere between 400-550 people.

EntreCon^® will be held in downtown Pensacola, Florida in person. All keynote and breakout sessions taking place in the Saenger Theatre will be live-streamed throughout the two days. Breakout sessions in other locations will be recorded and shared as quickly as possible on the webpage.

Yes! We’re always looking for assistance in setting up for the event, which takes place Monday and Tuesday prior to the conference, as well as during the actual event. We also accept large groups of volunteers (the more the merrier!). If you’re interested in volunteering for EntreCon^®, please email us at entrecon@studeri.org.

Not necessarily. We encourage all attendees to review the full 2-day agenda to plan out which breakout sessions you’d like to attend. All breakouts occur at the Saenger Theatre. Each session has limited seating, so please make your way to the specified room in a timely manner.

The dress code is business attire or business casual — be comfortable. We suggest that you bring a sweater or jacket to the sessions for your comfort, as meeting rooms and November in Pensacola can be a bit chilly!

Your attendee badge is your “ticket” for all conference activities (sessions, exhibitions, meals, and receptions). Badges must be worn at all times and are not transferable at any time.

Lunch will be provided for all attendees, both days. You are more than welcome to visit the local restaurants as well!

Clark Partington is hosting an #EntreSocial at their beautiful office (located at 125 E Intendencia St.) on Wednesday evening immediately following the last keynote. It’s close by, meaning you can walk there!

We encourage you to share your experience on all social media platforms using the hashtag #EntreCon2026. Be sure to tag @StuderInstitute, @EntreConPensacola, and @QuintStuder on Facebook, or @studer_community_institute and @qdstuder on Instagram! While it may be tempting to check your emails and take calls during the sessions, we highly encourage you to be present and take full advantage of your time out of the office.

Saving your parking plan for the morning of can be stressful, so we urge you to think about it beforehand! All of our partner hotels are within walking distance to the Pensacola Little Theatre. A map of suggested parking locations will be available shortly.
