Practice Fair
Join us in the Expo Hall during the Welcome Reception on Friday for the Practice Fair, an interactive and engaging showcase of innovative ideas and resources.
The Practice Fair is a live, open-format forum where presenters share their work simultaneously throughout the Exhibit Hall. Attendees are encouraged to explore the hall at their own pace, stopping at tables to view materials, ask questions, and connect directly with presenters.
This dynamic format fosters meaningful conversations, knowledge sharing, and networking opportunities, allowing presenters and participants to engage in real-time discussions and exchange practical insights.
