Hear What Others Are Saying

 “The conversation in the roundtable was very valuable. That is what makes me want to continue attending”

“The networking roundtables are the best part of the meeting.  Having the opportunity to bring up what you do well and what your blind spots are is amazing.  Learning from others, in a non-competitive format is the best.  Being able to skip steps when trying to try new ideas works well and the amount of sharing that happens is remarkable”

“The open dialogue with participants is a real highlight”
