HIGHER EDUCATION BUSINESS IS BORNThis is the conference for the business of higher education: bookstores, dining halls, campus card systems, housing, and more. Called auxiliary services, this is where their industry gathers. Here you can network with over 1,200 key decision-makers from over 320 institutions and 200 business partners.

SOLUTIONS TO CAMPUS PROBLEMS ARE FOUNDThe C3X Expo is where auxiliary services and business partners start the process of finding solutions to campus problems. NACAS attendees aren’t just walking a floor; they are looking for exhibitors who can partner with them. Network with campus visionaries and solution innovators and set up lasting partnerships.

OPTIONSC3X 2021 will be a hybrid virtual/in-person event. If you’re attending in person, the bright lights of America’s Favorite Playground are your beacon for 2021’s annual C3X meeting! We’ve chosen Harrah’s Resort in Atlantic City, New Jersey, as the site of our first in-person gathering in two years. Located on the north side of this famous city, Harrah’s expansive complex provides numerous culinary and amusement adventures to complement this year’s C3X conference and networking experience. And if that isn’t enough, the legendary Boardwalk and its treasures are just a few minutes away, waiting for you to discover them.

Where


While last year was the worst on many levels. NACAS Virtual C3X was a pleasant diversion. I thought the visual presentation of the speakers and the education sessions was excellent. I especially enjoyed how the vendors were able to post literature about their products and services. This allowed me to spend a little time reading their material at a level never afforded in person.”

MATT PORTNER, EJD, MED, CASP, Executive Director, Auxiliary Service, Ashland University

Each year, the C3X Expo is the place where the industry comes together to collaborate, create, and explore new ways to create customized campus services that are unique and meaningful to each school’s community. Let C3X serve as your gateway to hundreds of schools and facilitate introductions to higher education leaders seeking the right solutions to enrich campus experiences.

TestimonialsWHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT C3X


“ We can’t wait for C3X in Atlantic City. The opportunity to be in person with clients and prospective institutions is much appreciated while still being able to connect with institutions virtually. It is the perfect balance coming out of this past year.”

KARA BUNDE-DUNN, M. Ed.Slingshot

“Grubhub Campus lives at the cross section of three parts of the university experience: dining, student life, and campus card/technology services. As the essential association for campus auxiliaries, NACAS stands at the center of those converging worlds. On a more personal level, we credit much of our success as a company to the people we’ve met and industry knowledge we’ve acquired through our relationship with NACAS.”

BEN ANDERSON, CFP, Head of Industry RelationsGrubhub

I found that the virtual C3X experience provided an incredible forum to connect our emerging leaders with the NACAS experience and to help launch their NACAS journey. In terms of the connectivity with business partners, I found that I was able to plan my connections, and have deeper and focused engagement with current business partners, and seek out new services.”
