Last week MACCNY members gathered at The Halston for an engaging and insightful evening focused on leadership transition and the future of our industry.

A special thank you to Marc Soffler of Dynaire Corporation and Scott Berger of Arista Air Conditioning Corp. for leading a dynamic open panel discussion. Their honest perspectives, real-world experiences, and lessons learned from navigating company transitions sparked meaningful conversation and valuable takeaways for owners, leaders, and future decision-makers alike.


Sean Libby, our President, shared important updates from MACCNY Membership and discussed what’s ahead for our organization and industry in 2026. Sean touched upon how as our association evolves, we’re inviting members to take the next step by getting more involved through one of our committees. It’s a powerful way to build industry relationships, share your leadership and expertise, and directly impact. MACCNY programs, events, education, and membership growth.

The room was filled with thoughtful questions, strong networking, and the kind of collaboration that makes our association stronger.

Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the conversation. If you missed it, we look forward to seeing you at our next round table meeting!
