If you ask fellow attendees why they attend industry shows, the top reply you'll most likely hear is – Networking. Well, you will have plenty of networking opportunities. Once you register, you'll be given access to pre-show and on-site special events that promote a sense of community. We kick off the event with a WILDS networking reception, followed the next morning by a PARCEL Forum exclusive networking breakfast where you will be grouped with peers from your area. We also have special Idea Exchange sessions led by your peers. And that's not all: Join pre-event Webinars sponsored by USPS, Endicia, OnTrac, MailExpress and DHL Global Mail and attend the Opening Day Keynote Luncheon and Opening Night Networking Reception. PARCEL Forum is also home to Morgan Stanley's Carrier Roundtable Luncheon. Best of all, we include all of this with your conference registration.

Together We're Better: Create Your Own 1-1 Network,
Starting Now!

*You must pre-register for this event: SE101*
Join Dan Curren over a continental breakfast and learn how he started and continues to facilitate a peer group of regional companies who tour and critique each other's facilities. While social networking sites have benefits, there is nothing better than meeting face-to-face, or 1-1. After sharing his experiences on how to set up a group, Dan, the PARCEL Forum Advisors and staff will then help structure potential networking groups from those attending the session. It can be the start of your very own 1-1 networking group. |
