Due to increasing COVID cases and restrictions, the Planning Committee has decided to put safety first and shift to a fully virtual Summit.

And we will close each day with another hour of art and networking opportunities (a key Summit experience) that will conclude by 6:00pm ET. Register and Pay-What-You-Can here.
