Delight is the conference people attend because they want to, not because they have to. That’s partly because of the speakers and workshop leaders who share unique perspectives and insights you can take back to work. But it’s also because of the little (and not so little) things that help create a conference experience people love. From practical considerations to some of our most memorable moments, Experience Partners bring the party to the party!
