National Meeting Industry Day: Instead of holding our regular monthly Mixer, in April we are encouraging you to support the National Meeting Industry Day (NMID) on April 15th at 7:30 AM.
NMID has been celebrated across Canada for 14 years in eight major cities. In Edmonton they will be hosting a breakfast celebration and will be a time to connect with other professionals, to draw attention to the value of our local industry and to learn about social media from one of Canada's foremost experts. Social media expert Amber MacArthur will be delivering a keynote presentation that discusses social media trends.
To register, please visit www.nmid-edmonton.ca.
