Meet a Distributor

Advance sign up is required, see networking page for more details. There is a wait line on site if any openings become available.

These 30-minute informal networking sessions are designed to connect delegates with top distributors in a small group setting. These sessions are opportunities to network, discuss trends and to spark potential partnerships. Learn from and connect with industry experts. Up to six delegates can sign up in advance to meet with each distributor at one table.

Attendees who secured a spot in advance for Meet a Distributor should arrive at the session room 15-20 minutes prior to the session start time to check in with the room monitor and get processed. If you show up late, you risk losing your spot.  

If you did not secure a spot in advance, we recommend showing up to the session room 20-30 minutes early to join the wait line. The wait line will operate on a first-come, first-served basis.
