NETWORKING FOSTERS LONG-TERM PROFESSIONAL RELATIONSHIPS FOR ATTENDEES AND VENDORS
The 20-minute discussions between Attendees and Vendors – plus the informal networking that takes place during breaks and meals – generate a hum that reverberates throughout the ballroom.
At ProConnect Events, you can feel the excitement in the air. Attendees and Vendors say they like the the compressed information exchange – "a very good use of my time," is the most common response from Attendees and Vendors alike.

ATTENDEES SHARE INFORMATION, IDEAS, AND SOLUTIONS AT PROCONNECT ROUNDTABLES
Attendee Roundtables are a new feature for ProConnect events. Here, Attendees meet in groups of 12-15 for a one-hour moderated discusson of pre-selected agenda items – e.g., "Supply Chain Problems – and Solutions" – and offer each other technical advice and Post-event surveys show that the Attendee Roundtables have become one of the most popular features of ProConnect events, along with other networking opportunities.
