Fringe Events

Positive feedback we received after the 2008 Conference was how the additional fringe events helped delegates socialise, learn and explore amongst each other, building a true sense of community.

We’re truly a social crowd, so this year will be no exception, with planning underway for a variety of events during the week of November 2nd through to 8th.
