Registration opens at 0800 on Thursday
After reviewing the speaking schedule and event lineup this year I thought it would be helpful to mow down a path of ‘must-see’ interesting talks and events. With 5 tracks and countless side events going on not to mention the line jockeying that will undoubtedly have to take place to even get into some of these talks, a loose but objective plan may prove useful yet again.
