Hi {{First name | there}},
A huge thank you to all 360+ people who showed up to our inaugural conference. A few highlights from the event:
Standing-room only across all six main forum sessions
92% of accepted attendees showed up — just 8% attrition!
798 person waitlist by conference day
We were also grateful to receive thoughtful feedback from attendees, including:
Company posts: Fried Frank, Navigator Global Investments, Cantilever Group, and Campbell Lutyens
We’re incredibly grateful for the support and excited to build on this momentum. Highlight reel comes out tomorrow — stay tuned!
