Networking breakfasts in the exhibit hall

Free time to enjoy breakfast, visit exhibits and chat before activities begin.

Networking receptions

Fun and interactive receptions designed for casual interactions. 
  • Sunday evenings reception is a redesigned shorter light-reception with passed hors ‘d’oeurves and a beverage to kick off your evening before heading to dinner with your favorite representatives and colleagues.
  • Monday evening’s reception is a casual tailgating party where you can wear apparel from your favorite sports team aiding in new conversations and giving a whole new name to fun!
  • Tuesday evening’s reception offers a time to mingle with the crowd, meet new people and simply enjoy your evening together.

  • Fast-paced networking event designed to have each General Member speak to each Associate Member for two minutes. 
  • It is not designed to display products/services.
  • Each General Member Company will have its own small table. 
  • Associate Companies will meet with the General Members, one-on-one, for two minutes. Associates need to be prepared to give their elevator speech.
  • Music signals Associates to move to the next General Member table.

One-on-One Appointments

  • NALMCO will provide all attendees with One-on-One appointment cards.
