What hosting requires

Hosted Practitioners commit to up to ten 15-minute, double opt-in 1:1 meetings with solution providers of their choice, and one Breakthru Networking Dinner. Completing those commitments, plus a short post-event survey and expense receipts, is what unlocks the $1,500 travel reimbursement.

What practitioners are saying.

See all testimonials
The Breakthru meetings were great and the matching was done well, with a mix of practitioners and solution providers. Far better for networking than just talking at a table like other events.
