2026 WPMAEXPO Recap
What an honor it has been to serve as WPMA
President for a second year alongside such a humble, service-
minded executive committee. It was great to be back in a
familiar place, surrounded by friends and colleagues in one
of the greatest industries in the world. We are truly blessed
to work in an industry that is meaningful, fast-paced, and
constantly evolving.
This year’s Hall of Fame honoree, Brad Bell, was incredibly
deserving. His remarks were heartfelt and served as a power-
ful reminder of the importance of where we come from and
the relationships we build, connections that may change over
time but are never forgotten.
Thank you to all the attendees, vendors, suppliers, and
sponsors for your continued support of this outstanding
industry expo. I am also incredibly grateful to our WPMA
board members and staff, not only for their hard work and
dedication, but for their friendship.
The future of WPMA is bright, and I am confident the
association is in excellent hands with the executive team
continuing to serve. As I step away from this position in
June, I do so with countless fond memories from my time on
the WPMA board, executive committee, and as President.
Thank you for your personal support, and more importantly,
for your continued support of an industry I am proud to be a
part of.
Sincerely,
Matt Berry
WPMA President
