HOME 2019 CONFERENCE AGENDA SPEAKERS VENUE HOTEL SPONSORS FEEDBACK PAST YEARS REGISTER FEEDBACK “VERY IMPRESSED WITH YOUR ENTIRE LINEUP OF SPEAKERS” We attend numerous conventions over the year and I must say we were very impressed with your entire lineup of speakers. The topics were current and very educational. We were both amazed at how well everything was planed. Everything ran so smoothy and we especially enjoyed the luncheon where we rotated tables for each course. It was a great way to meet other attendees. The gong and bell was also a great way to let everyone know it was time to move or take there seat for the next session. We were also very impressed with how attentive and helpful all your staff was. — Glenn Caldwell “LEARNED A LOT WHILE ALSO MAKING MANY NEW CONTACTS” It was an excellent conference that was very well attended and I came away having learned a lot while also making many new contacts.

The talks were amazing and super insightful – it is truly incredible to me on how fast the industry and its standards are changing since April this year.
