“Last year’s conference was extremely productive. As a repeat attendee, it was great to catch up with the presenters and other attendees, whom I had met the previous year. Being able to trade stories on successes and some about the tough times with other business leaders made the meeting very interesting. This year, it will be super informative to hear about how companies are coming out of the trough.”
