PRISM's 1st Annual Conference Recap |
|
|
Thank you to everyone who joined us in San Diego for our first ever PRISM conference!
For those who couldn’t attend, you were missed, but we're excited to share some highlights. We welcomed over 120 attendees at Orientation, hosted 18 trade show tables, offered 18 engaging education sessions, and held a productive Executive Committee meeting. We also achieved our largest-ever Board meeting quorum, capped off by a Board dinner attended by 400 guests!
It was an incredible opportunity to connect, build bridges, and share knowledge, especially with so many first-time PRISM attendees. Thank you for making it such a successful and memorable event!
