ATLANTA, Georgia (bdpatoday®) — BDPACON25 convenes August 13-16, 2025, at the Westin Peachtree Plaza Atlanta with special receptions and museum tours for members and industry partners.

To commemorate its 50th Anniversary, National BDPA, Inc. (BDPA.org) is facilitating a very special reunion and tour of the Mimms Museum of Technology and Art for BDPA™ members, alumni, and sponsors.
