Full Program

Two days.
Every room, every slot.

1-2-1 meeting slots run all day, not just within defined 1-2-1 meeting sessions.

Sessions are tagged by deal phase, audience tier, and room. Panels, roundtables, and sector clinics run in parallel with 1-2-1 meetings. You choose how to spend every block of the day.

Lively, interactive small-group discussions on the most pressing topics independent sponsors are facing today. Groups of 6 to 8 rotate every 20 minutes. Tables are clearly labeled and pre-assigned based on registration profiling so you sit with peers actually working on the problem.
