Since the last report, the Annual Meeting Committee has been hard at work planning all the details of the upcoming Annual NERVES Member meeting in Philadelphia, PA occurring April 27-29, 2022. With the help of our platinum sponsors Curi and Hub, we secured some really amazing featured speakers this year, along with our incredible group of regular presenters.
We have all missed the travel and in-person relationships for the last 2 years, so we are hopeful that every member will try to make it to this year’s meeting. The roundtables on Wednesday are a “must attend” for every member, as this is where professional relationships are built with peers. Thursday and Friday are also full of vendor-sponsors, educational speakers, breakout sessions and an excitement that will be palpable.
We have secured most of our vendors already (just a couple spots remain at the time of this summary), a great hotel location, a beautiful rooftop Thursday evening event, and a closing presenter, Roddy Chong, that you do NOT want to miss. We worked out the event announcements & promotions plan, made sure our vendors will get several opportunities to be in the spotlight, and created a “what to do in Philly” link on our NERVES website under the Events tab if you have some time the days before or after the meeting.
We have also started working on the 2023 location planning and will tell you more about that at the Annual Meeting. We are in need of a few people to join this committee, so reach out to John Moeller [email protected] if you are interested in planning the 2023 event.
