Encore CatalystAn absolutely outstanding conference. It was world class. The quality of speakers was the best. It was also a very worthwhile event for me. I was able to sell some tests and make some connections that may prove valuable. I really appreciate your encouragement and support to attend.

I was thrilled to both participate in and present at EXCELerate 2017. As a business owner, it is hard to justify the time to attend a conference. However, this conference surpassed my expectations. I learned a great deal, gained many new business connections and walked away feeling very inspired.

There is no question that this was once again one of the most captivating conferences that I have attended—with not only one good idea—but many. It is wonderful how the panels all have different points of view that foster challenging perhaps our previous opinions or at the very least give us more information to have an informed opinion. Our team thought it was time well spent indeed!
McCurdy FinancialExcellent location, food, really enjoyed the Plenary sessions. Met some wonderful women in business.
