Join several very talented professionals in an informal environment and talk a little shop at the roundtables. This setting allows conference attendees to share opportunities and experiences, answer questions and pass out advice, as well as address up-to-the-minute topics.

Conference attendees are encouraged to attend both the breakfast roundtables and lunch roundtables with exhibitors. Please ensure your space at the roundtable you wish to attend by taking a card from the roundtable display located next to the conference registration. There are only nine cards available for each roundtable.
