Uh, of course – and cocktails! Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks are all included with your registration. And a special networking happy hour from 4:30 -5:30 you won’t want to miss!
Due to limited registration, we’re asking those who RSVP to commit to the full day where possible. Life happens, but this is a day of networking you won’t want to miss.
We will not be offering a virtual option, in order to maximize participation and engagement on site. But highlights of sessions will be made available after the event.
