Participants can join the round table of their choice. Each roundtable leader will spend the first 10 minutes on a case study, lessons learned, or industry update. This will be followed by a 30-minute open discussion with all participants, moderated by the leader. The final 5 minutes will be used to identify 3-5 industry recommendations resulting from the group discussion. Key recommendations will be shared with the entire audience, and all roundtable recommendations will be included in the post-event report.
