Changes & Updates from 2024 & 2025

  • New start time! 2pm start. Still finishes at 8pm. We will have 45 min breaks between speakers [30 min previously], so more time in the Exhibit Hall interacting with you.
  • Only two speakers at any one time. More attendees will likely be in the Exhibit Hall as a result
  • No more stamp/sticker collecting raffle for staff
  • Open bar is moving to 3 drink tickets per person
  • More high tables will be distributed throughout the Exhibit Hall, to encourage socializing and keep attendees in the Hall

Our top sponsors [Platinum and Gold] will receive discounted sponsorship opportunities at our Spring Social.

As always, we are open to feedback and suggestions and encourage you to send in your thoughts well ahead of the event.
