Prospect Development features four days of industry-leading education around the key pillars of prospect development — prospect research, relationship management, data analytics and campaigns — with plenty of networking time built in. The conference will include:
- Three general sessions to bring us together to level up our collective focus, asking "big picture" questions of industry leaders and ourselves.
- The top-notch leadership and professional development track to offer leadership, advocacy and intrapersonal communication skills development.
- Dedicated networking time to connect with your colleagues, exhibitors and sponsors throughout the four days.
All times are listed in Eastern Daylight Time. Schedule subject to change.
*Additional fee required. These pre-conference sessions are optional and can be purchased as an add-on to your PD in-person conference registration or as a standalone.
