Thank you for checking in!
We’re busy preparing for next year’s Expo!
The date, the theme and the venue are already selected and the 3rd annual promises to be the most-valuable, most-exciting Expo yet!
Each year, we learn more of what you want, so we’re bringing along a few ideas from the past 2 years and making a few key changes to next year’s event.
CHANGES…
- Expo III will start earlier (10:00 am) and end earlier (4:00 pm)
- a lunch will be served at 12:00, rather than dinner at 5:00
- an “Exhibitor Tour” will take place at 4:30, during happy hour
- early-bird tickets will be available until Dec. 15, 2019 (save $25)
UNCHANGED…
- the extraordinary venue, the Avalon’s Millenium Ballroom
- “TED” style talks vs. long presentations or breakout sessions
- only local business leaders in the speaker lineup
- only local exhibitors on display
Expo III will feature 21 area owners and executives giving insight on John C. Maxwell’s 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership! If you’re not familiar, visit his site to purchase books
Please check back often for updates to the speaker and exhibitor lineups, as well as announcements and promotions!
with appreciation,
Kurt
