Delegates will take part in interactive experiences that encourage knowledge sharing and promote responsible practices within the business events landscape.
Delegates will participate in a series of hands-on activities that encourage interaction, collaboration, and cultural appreciation, providing a refreshing break from traditional business meetings while facilitating networking in an informal setting.
