CNI Fall 2024 Membership Meeting
December 9-10, 2024
JW Marriott Hotel, Washington, DC
During breakfast on Tuesday, Dec. 10 (7:45-8:45 a.m.), attendees may join optional table discussions on pre-determined topics. The breakfast discussion tables are intended to give attendees an opportunity to engage with each other on issues for which there is strong community interest and/or to learn more about initiatives we believe to be of value. There will still be ample space in the breakfast area for those who prefer unstructured dining and social opportunities.
Designated tables will be marked by table signs and located throughout the breakfast area. There is no signup; participation is first come, first served.
