Testimonials
For the first time ever, and I have been to a lot of conferences over the years, this is the only one where I really felt I got my money’s worth. I will definitely be back!
Well organized, powerful line up of speakers that were available during the conference, not just when they presented!
Best conference I have attended in years. Amazing! I will be back next year.
This conference offers the best networking with sponsors and properties I have encountered anywhere!
Wonderful learning and networking…make it 3 days!
Thank you for putting together such a useful and informative conference! The variety in workshops and in guests made it both interesting and educational.
The speakers were right on. Every session allowed me to take home tools to put into practice right away.
“The Two Minute Pitch” (now a Five Minute Pitch)” helped me to clearly see how others pitched, their strengths and weaknesses and how sponsors are evaluating. This session alone was worth the price of the conference!
Valued the opportunity to learn from sponsors/donors in what they are looking for in a proposal.
What was great was that corporate presenters and attendees were open to setting up meetings with properties after the conference!
“The Two Minute Pitch” (now a Five Minute Pitch) was the best session I have ever been to!
