I felt the event was a great success! I spoke to several who were attending this type of event for the first time. To me, that meant we were expanding our networks and reaching out to new participants in this dialogue!
The keynote speakers, presenters for the breakout sessions, and participants in the Lighting Round were all great. I don't know how they were found and selected but I am impressed. Excellent job in the first year!
Great ideas and inspiring! I have brought back some ideas to the landfill and other organizations that I am part of in the area.
It was AWESOME! Way to go. Thanks for bringing this caliber of event to the Midwest.
