Dennis Oglesby, MAS, director of promotional products at GO2 Partners (PPAI 240324, Gold), PPAI 100’s No. 30 distributor, will be attending PPAI’s North American Leadership Conference in San Diego next month.

And he’ll be doing it, in part, on PPAI’s dime.

A member of both the Tri-State Promotional Professionals Association and Promotional Products Association Midwest, Oglesby has been chosen to receive the PPAI Regional Scholarship, which covers up to $2,500 for event registration, hotel costs and airfare costs for any of PPAI’s events in 2026.

“As GO2 Partners has experienced tremendous growth, being recognized as one of PPAI’s Greatest Companies to Work For the past five years while being ranked on the PPAI 100 list for the past two years, it’s critical for our company to connect with other industry leaders on a deeper level,” Oglesby says. “At the same time, it’s critical that we continue our deep presence within the industry and ensure the success of our firm as well as our vendor relationships.”

I firmly believe in the power of regional associations and the importance of PPAI in furthering the goals of all distributors and suppliers within our industry that I deeply love.”
