Additional Elements of Convergence

 

Solutions Circles

Solutions Circles are back! These popular segments are where regulatory professionals gather to discuss and brainstorm on practices with the highest form of collaboration in mind, taking the knowledge collected through Convergence and use as think tanks. Bounce ideas off your colleagues. Examine regulatory challenges. Create and re-create learning structured by individuals who know the field best.

Dates and times for Solutions Circles will be available closer to the event.
