Each panel will last approximately 50 minutes and we will reserve time for the audience to send in live questions all throughout the day. There will be absolutely NO SALES PITCHES permitted by any of our speakers. All audience members will have access to introductions to any of the panelists and we're always open to making connections to others within our network as well.
