TABB 2026 Conference Planning Is Underway

Planning for the 2026 Texas Association of Business Brokers (TABB) Conference is officially underway, and we are excited to share an early announcement as momentum begins to build.

We are proud to announce that J.J. Birden, 9-Year NFL Veteran, Entrepreneur, and nationally recognized keynote speaker, will be joining us as the keynote speaker for the 2026 TABB Conference, taking place in Lakeway, Texas, just outside Austin.

J.J. Birden spent nearly a decade competing in the NFL, including a Super Bowl championship season, before transitioning into a successful business career. Today, he is a sought-after keynote speaker known for connecting elite-level performance, preparation, and adaptability to real-world business challenges.

His message resonates strongly with professionals in business brokerage, M&A, and advisory services—where discipline, resilience, trust, and execution matter every day. J.J.’s keynote will focus on translating high-performance principles from the field into practical strategies for leadership, growth, and long-term success.

With conference planning in full swing, TABB 2026 sponsorship opportunities are now open. Sponsorship provides meaningful visibility within the Texas business brokerage and M&A community while supporting the continued growth and quality of our annual conference.

Additional sponsorship details and packages will be shared soon, but interested partners are encouraged to begin conversations early as opportunities are limited.

Conference registration will be announced shortly, along with additional details on speakers, programming, and events. We look forward to bringing the TABB community together again in Lakeway for another high-impact conference experience.

More updates coming soon. We look forward to seeing you in Austin this year.
