WHAT OUR ATTENDEES SAY

"I attended the conference from Wednesday to Friday and all of the speakers were really engaging and informative. I learned a lot from this conference. I brought a lot of new ideas back to my company that I'm eager to try. [...] The food provided was delicious and as someone who has a lot of food allergies, I really appreciated that they put ingredient note cards out with each dish. I also enjoyed the semi customizable schedule."
