The Conclave Board of Directors is officially calling upon the radio industry to submit nominations for the final Rockwell Award.
This historic, final lifetime achievement honor will be presented during Conclave 45: The Last Conclave, taking place from September 15th to 17th at the Crowne Plaza Minneapolis International Airport in Bloomington, MN.
Established in 1989 to honor the legacy of Wisconsin radio owner and operator Mike Rockwell, the Rockwell Award is the highest individual distinction handed out by the organization. It honors industry champions who have demonstrated exceptional, inspirational leadership and generated a lifelong blueprint of accomplishment and mentorship within the broadcasting community.
Because this marks the 45th and final iteration of the legendary learning conference, this year’s selection carries unprecedented historical weight. The final recipient will be chosen directly by The Conclave Board of Directors and will join an illustrious roster of past winners that includes industry icons Fred and Paul Jacobs, Weezie Kramer, John Gehron, and Duke Wright.
