With the theme "Sustaining Momentum," the 23rd Executive Forum will be held April 3 and 4, 2012, at the JW Marriott in San Antonio, Texas. This year's event will focus on the unprecedented growth of competitive markets and strategies retailers must use to sustain their momentum.
"For the first time since competitive retail energy markets opened approximately 15 years ago, we can finally say that over 50 percent of this market is competitively served," said Young Kim, associate director of KEMA's Retail Energy Practice.

At the Executive Forum, we will debate and discuss the initiatives and improvements necessary for the retail energy sector to stay on this growth path."
