12 PM | Think Differently – Reimagining your events

Register

Creating connection is at the core of what makes our community so special. And while we still aren’t able to gather, there are countless ways to reimagine San Luis Obispo’s signature events and continue to bring people together.

We are bringing together some of the best event leaders in the industry to share how they have pivoted during this challenging time and found the ability to not only survive, but thrive. With nearly 80 years of experience planning and executing events between them, our speakers’ resumes include hosting private events for Hollywood’s A-list and pulling off virtual political conventions.

Join us on Monday, December 7 for an afternoon of inspiration, education and tangible takeaways for reinventing events and engaging your audience in profoundly new ways.
