Planning Well Underway for SSTI's 11th Annual Conference
Please plan on joining us in Baltimore on October 18-19. You can learn firsthand how the Maryland Stem Cell Research Fund successfully secured the increase in funding and how the initiatives are progressing, all while enjoying the view of the gorgeous Inner Harbor (see related story in this Digest).
In a few weeks, we'll be asking our members to evaluate ideas for conference sessions. These ratings determine the topics we focus on and the sessions being offered. While all interested parties can submit ideas, only members receive the exclusive opportunity to finalize the conference agenda by voting on session topics. You are invited to participate in the process by becoming a member today by visiting http://www.ssti.org/benefits.htm
"The SSTI National Conference gives me and my team the opportunity to discuss and network with people who understand 'technology and innovation ideas and strategies' that no other group in the country understands", said Tom Persons, president and chief executive officer of the South Carolina Technology Alliance. "It is always a shot of adrenaline, you just want the conference to go on another few days each year, and I consider the annual conference as my annual educational experience."
You can become involved in the annual conference by submitting session ideas, becoming a conference sponsor or attending the event. Don't let your organization miss out on any opportunities. Contact Noelle Sheets, director of membership services, at 614.901.1690 for more information.
