As we look towards the fourth quarter of 2021, the complexities surrounding the state of the industry evolving alongside the ever-changing dynamics of the global pandemic have left the meeting & conference businesses in a state of near constant flux.

In this comprehensive session we will hear from industry advocacy groups and provincial representatives so that you can be up-to-the-minute with all the latest & most relevant developments.

Following our main session there will be breakout opportunities for planners, suppliers, and students to tap into the resources, tools, and knowledge you can use to thrive in the latter part of this year.
