Based on some of the feedback we received after 2015’s conference, one of those new ideas we’re going to be including is a chunk of time set aside specifically for networking, open to all conference attendees and presenters. This networking session will go best if there is someone there whose job is to keep it lively and make sure everyone gets as much as they can out of their time. </span></div>

If you’re a networking rockstar (or if you just happen to know a few tricks for getting a group of strangers to meet), we’d love to have you emcee this year’s networking session! </span></span><div><span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></span></span></div><div><span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Contact us at </span><a href="mailto:olassdconference@gmail.com" style="text-decoration:none"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;text-decoration:underline;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">olassdconference@gmail.com</span></a><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:14.6667px;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap"> and share your ideas.
