A New Way to Source Vendors
Training & Development Summit (941) 925-7585 www.forumevents.com
Tailored to your company's needsAppointment-based events are a fool proof method for developing quality relationships with providers. Our unique selection process allows you to describe your company's needs and projects. Our team then sources vendors based on your needs, scheduling concentrated, one-on-one meetings over the day-and-a-half event. This provides a private setting for you to discuss solutions and ask questions.
Challenges the traditional exhibition environmentUnlike a traditional trade show, you will be comfortably seated at your own table while vendors meet with you at their scheduled times. There are no largescale exhibits or long standing periods, just comfortable and informative business conversations.
It’s not just meetings...Throughout the event, you will have the opportunity to attend educational seminars along with numerous networking activities including breakfasts, luncheons and a formal gala dinner. We encourage that you get to know potential providers and your industry peers during these after hour activities that include several cocktail receptions and a casino evening.
Proven ExperienceThe Training & Development Summit is produced by Forum Events. Hosting more than 250 events since 1996 in North America and Europe, Forum Events has created a proven method for successful business events designed with you in mind.
Save time and energy meeting with vendors who suit your needs.

✓ Attendance, refreshments and meals all come at your expense.
✓ The environment is impersonal, crowded and noisy!
