Orchid LLC and Williams Mullen’s Firearms Industry Group are calling for firearms industry professionals to lead educational sessions at the 2023 Firearms Industry Conference (FIC), to be held in Atlanta, May 1-3, 2023. The conference will explore topics relating to FFL Technology, FFL Compliance, and Finance and Firearms Industry Law, with sessions presenting expert tips, practical ideas, and the latest information for tactical and compliant operations.

“Our industry is full of bright, innovative and experienced technology, operations and compliance professionals,” said Orchid VP of Sales & Implementation, Shaun Phelan. “FIC provides one of the best learning opportunities for FFLs, but it wouldn’t be possible without talented speakers. We’re eager to see what sessions and content are submitted and the agenda our team can put together for this year’s event.”

We are seeking industry professionals who will:

• Lead a session that showcases expert-level comprehension and insight
• Teach a skill or technique to improve operational efficiencies and compliance
• Offer a technology, tool, or implementation that can benefit industry members
• Provide real world examples of successes, challenges, and lessons learned
• Interact with attendees in engaged conversation and problem-solving

In addition to receiving free registration to FIC 2023 in-person events, conference speakers will experience the camaraderie of engaging with industry members in deeper conversation, the fulfillment of fostering greater education, and heightened brand awareness.

“I loved the opportunity to present while representing EpiCenter, the leader in implementation of Epicor ERP in the firearms industry,” said David Sawan, Sr. Director of Professional Services & Development at EpiCenter, of this past year’s event. “FIC is the leading educational event for our industry, and its breadth of networking it provides is fantastic.”
