BREAKFAST OR LUNCH WITH A DECISION MAKER

BREAKFAST OR LUNCH WITH A DECISION MAKER

Breakfast with and Lunch with a Decision Maker sessions are an informal networking opportunity for delegates to meet with broadcasters and streamers, development executives, distributors and agents in a small-group setting over the meal hour. These are NOT pitch sessions, rather a fantastic networking opportunity.

HOW IT WORKS

  • Advance sign-up is required.
  • Once general sign-up opens, attendees can log into their BANFFXchange account to select one (1) breakfast or lunch Host they’d like to sit with.
  • Breakfast with and Lunch with a Decision Maker session sign-ups are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • If all the seats are full when you login to sign up, we encourage delegates to check BANFFXchange regularly, as other delegates sometimes make changes to their personal agendas, which may leave a spot open.
  • Please see key dates for this program below.
  • If you don’t secure a spot during the sign-up phase, don't worry - there is still a chance to get a seat by waiting in line for a spot to open up on the day of the event.
  • We highly recommend you register before sign-up opens, as spots go quickly!

KEY DATES

  • General BANFFXchange sign-up opens: Friday May 11, 2018 at 11:00am ET
  • General BANFFXchange sign-up closes: Friday June 8, 2018 at 5:00pm ET
