How do you choose your solution providers?

Attendance for our sponsors is also invitation only. Solution providers are invited to participate in the Exchange based on their market leading solutions, demand from the delegates for their presence, or recommendation from the speaking faculty.

How do you select your speakers and topics?
Our Production team conducts extensive research in the market to determine which topics and speakers to profile at the event. They establish relationships with key executives within certain industries and create tailored, practical agendas that keep business executives up to date with industry trends, technological developments and changes to the business landscape.

What does the profiling process entail?
As part of the event onboarding process each delegate undergoes a comprehensive interview with one of our Audience Experience Team, sharing insights about themselves, their company’s connected workforce strategy, upcoming projects, and future needs. These profiles are used to help match our Delegates to relevant Solution Partners and prioritize meetings that best align with their business goals, ensuring meaningful and productive engagements.

How do the 1:1 meeting’s work?
One-to-One Meetings are the backbone of an Exchange. Each meeting is a mutually selected opportunity for buyers and sellers to discuss business. A month before the Exchange, our online meeting scheduler goes live, featuring profiles of all delegates and solution providers. Both delegates and solution providers select meetings based on their business priorities. The software then creates customized itineraries for each participant. The schedule is intensive but effective ensuring every session, networking function, and meeting is directly tied to delegates’ business needs and investment priorities.

Is there a fee associated with attendance?

As this is an invite only event, there is only $99 admin fee charged to your card to confirm your attendance and hotel room. We cover your accommodation costs for the nights of May 4 and 5.

Are the meals and drinks included?
