NWONL Update - 2024 Annual Conference Confirmed, Save the Date!

Posted about 2 years ago

2024 Annual Conference: May 16-17th, Seattle Marriott Airport Conference Center.

The Board has approved and we have secured the 2024 site/date. Attendee feedback has been outstanding on what to change/improve. Here is the short list:

  • Move to mid-May. June is too busy.
  • Move to late week: Thurs/Fri. Weekends are hard to fit in.
  • Even more time for sessions, networking and personal time. 
  • More access/time to engage with presenters, affiliates and partners/sponsors.
  • Ensure sure the next site is just as good (or better). 
  • Secure enough room in sessions so we have more space for everyone.
  • Ensure the food and beverages are excellent.
  • Find a way to make it easier for those traveling in to park luggage and plan for transport.

You can be sure we will deliver on all these points!

  • Thursday will have a "later" start and be our full day, including an expanded lunch and culminating with an enhanced reception/social.
  • Friday will be a half day starting with breakfast and adjourning at by noon with a late-checkout allowing time for travel.
  • The Marriott Seattle Airport Conference center was completely updated and revitalized in 2019-2020.
  • Our events and social will be in their main hall (and it is lovely).

Like this year, the 2024 conference will be limited, however Members always have priority. The NWONL Annual Conference is truly the premier event for connecting with Leaders across the region. Members will be notified of early registration in Q4.
