Like Route 66, every career has a starting point, unexpected turns and people you meet along the way who can influence where you go next.
At the 2026 SEMA Show, the SEMA Future Leaders Network (FLN) will bring that idea to life. The FLN Reception, taking place Tuesday, Nov. 3, from 5-7 p.m. in West Hall W232, will feature the theme, “Route 66: The Road Ahead,” because much like the iconic highway, our careers are not always about the destination, but about the journey and the experiences we have along the way.
Whether you’re transitioning into leadership, expanding your expertise or working toward your next career move, the FLN Reception is your opportunity to share your career journey with other members. It’s also a great chance to expand your network, celebrate achievements during the awards ceremony, learn about FLN’s resources and strengthen relationships in a relaxed setting.
So, make your SEMA Show plans, mark your stops and join FLN on Tuesday for an evening of connection, sharing experiences and celebrating the journey ahead.
