Beginning Jan 1, 2022, the cost of the lunches provided by the Reno-Sparks Convention Center for our Biz Bite and Special Event luncheons will increase significantly. We’ve looked at a variety of creative options to keep our prices as low as possible, but at the end of the day, we have to make a change. The best option is to change the menu to a cold lunch including a salad or sandwich, desert, and coffee or ice tea. NCET’s primary goal is to bring you great event programming and a filling lunch so this slight price increase will allow us to continue to do that. Beginning in January, our new prices will be $39 for members and $49 for nonmembers.

• $39 – NCET members
• $49 – General Admission
