Virtual Platform
Our virtual platform for the forum is Webex. We have tested this platform with many member companies and do not anticipate any firewall issues. A pre-conference test period will be available for you to log in to the platform to ensure you are able to access the system without any challenges. This test period is scheduled for Monday, October 18, 8:00 AM - 10:00 AM CT.  

Networking & Connections
We know there is not a virtual platform that is comparable to in-person events for networking and connections, but we are working hard to provide multiple avenues for you to connect with other forum attendees.
