Description

Each round table has a different topic and attendees can select the round table they would like to participate in. Round table leaders will spend the first 15 minutes meeting the delegates and providing a case study/lessons learned log/industry update and then moderating a 30-minute discussion with the group where they can give feedback and ask questions. The final 10 –15 minutes will be spent agreeing on 3 -5 industry recommendations. A selection of these recommendations will be shared with the whole audience, and all of them will be summarized in the post-event report.
