DEMA Show Program 25

Join us for our exciting second annual collaborative networking event designed exclusively for dive centers looking to learn, grow, and thrive together. Dive Center Connect brings together professionals from across the country for an open exchange of ideas, challenges, and proven strategies that are driving real success in today’s dive industry. This unique gathering will kick off with short spotlight talks from several of our valued partners, each sharing insights into what’s worked for them—whether it’s boosting travel sales, improving student retention, expanding their retail footprint, or creating stronger community engagement. Following these talks, you’ll have the opportunity to join focused breakout sessions led by the speakers, where you can dive deeper into the topics that matter most to your business. Whether you're a new operator or a seasoned dive center owner, this event offers a rare chance to connect with like-minded peers, get inspired by practical ideas, and walk away with tools you can use right away. Let’s build the future of dive retail—together. For questions: Cheryl Patterson / retailers@deepblueadventures.com / 419-464-9187
