Networking for Success |
Years of conference planning and feedback has reinforced the notion that networking leads to success. Sometimes, the best results come from unplanned connections. As such, we've made sure to include plenty of opportunities for you to connect personally with our delegation, speakers, and other conference attendees.
We have two exciting receptions in store for you during Discover Global Markets: The Americas. In case you missed the prior announcement, click here for more information on the special reception at The Mint Museum on Thursday, October 30th, highlighting the 100th Anniversary of the Panama Canal. |
