KBISNeXT Stage Lineup Revealed for KBIS 2022

The KBISNeXT Stage at KBIS 2022 will offer a wealth of new educational sessions covering topics including home wellness, the benefits of TikTok, creating the perfect lighting scheme, and more.

The National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA), owners of the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS), recently revealed the programming lineup planned for the KBISNeXT Stage at KBIS 2022. The stage is one of the most popular show destinations, and features thought-provoking industry topics like the newest NKBA Design Trends, the ever-popular Design Bites series and more.  

The stage, positioned in the South Hall of the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla., will host more than 20 programs, including four awards events and 60+ leading industry voices and personalities throughout the three-day show taking place from February 8-10, 2022. The KBISNeXT Stage is free to all registrants.

Topics for the 2022 programming grid include how the generational divide is impacting design and lifestyles today, how to integrate diversity and inclusion practices into your business, what’s happening in a healthy home and resilient design, how to manage your business for today’s new realities, and more. 

“This year’s lineup of programming on the KBISNeXT Stage is stellar,” says Suzie Williford, EVP of Industry Relations and chief strategy officer of the National Kitchen & Bath Association, which owns KBIS. “Each year the team brings forward compelling material and presenters, but for this show, we’ve really dialed it up, including some very different and critical topics.  All are sure to help attendees improve their businesses and maneuver our new reality. The KBISNeXT Stage is definitely a must-attend venue.”
