“The PCCA Annual Convention varies from other industry events in that it facilitates an open dialogue, and allows people to build relationships — not just for business, but actual friendships,” says PCCA President Jose Ramirez. “The PCCA is more like a family. That’s the nature of the memberships, that’s the way we structure the event. It’s all about everyone being together and getting to know one another on a more personal level.”
