SPN’s 28th Annual Meeting ([link removed][UNIQID]) is less than two weeks away, and you won't want to miss out on this year's insights, connections, and fun!

You may be wondering: What will the SPN virtual Annual Meeting experience be like?

This first-of-its-kind Network conference is more than a series of Zoom calls. The online event space is designed to encourage networking, discussions, and even session-hopping, just like our in-person event. We also know how important it is to connect with each other over interests that have nothing to do with work. That's why the agenda ([link removed][UNIQID]) includes several opportunities to interact "face-to-face" with friends and peers across the Network.
