Poster or Table Session Networking
A representative from each group sits at a table with materials that outline their groups mission, vision and any important upcoming programs/events/initiatives. We request each group host a poster or table during one of two open poster/table session networking times. This provides you the opportunity to connect with other summit attendees, build potential future collaborations and generally advertise for what you do and why you do it. You may be as elaborate or simple in this effort as you see fit. Your session time will be assigned prior to the summit. Posters should be standard size (48" x 36") . Tables and chairs will be provided (6 foot).
