Move from presentation to problem-solving in these highly interactive, peer-driven roundtables. Each roundtable covers a different topic, allowing attendees to choose the discussion most relevant to them.

Roundtable leaders will open with a brief 10-minute introduction and a short overview of the topic, which can include a case study, lessons learned, or an industry update. This is followed by a 40-minute peer discussion, with the leader facilitating questions, feedback, and practical exchange. The final 10 minutes are dedicated to aligning on five clear industry recommendations to share back with the wider audience.
