CORPSMART™ at NPRRA Annual Conference

The CORPSMART™ team just returned from Nashville, where the NPRRA hosted their Annual Conference. This industry association is comprised of some of the top public records research companies throughout the world, a resource that we have relied on in developing our own network of correspondents. The conference was packed full of education and networking, as well as the unveiling of key initiatives from the associations current administration including the rebranding and launching of NPRRA’s new website.

Our own fearless leader, Melissa Hopton re-upped her role as President of the NPRRA and is excited to work with the Board of Directors to grow the associations networking, membership and benefits. The board will meet again later this year in Palm Springs for their Strategic Planning meeting. This is the time when the board comes together to discuss key issues in our industry and strategize best ways of building benefits for the membership. Melissa and McKenna from CORPSMART™ will be attending this meeting and representing our industry as a whole.
