The conference is awesome, but it’s also these Lunch & Learns. It’s making that LinkedIn connection... We’re all in the same boat. We have the same mission in mind, which is representing patients and showcasing caregivers. So it’s so important to have likeminded people doing the same roles that you can reach out to. That networking and camraderie is gold.
