Why the Changes?
After thoughtful deliberation, we've transitioned from the conventional luncheon format to an evening cocktail reception this year. This shift enables us to uphold the event's sustainability amidst escalating costs while offering enhanced networking opportunities for our esteemed sponsors and guests.
