What 2023 Attendees Had to Say

• “The 2023 RWA-RINA Summit was an absolute goldmine of invaluable insights and industry knowledge!”

“I thought the Summit was amazing! As a first-year exhibitor at RWA and as someone who has done many hours of fruitless booth duty, I was blown away by the participation and interaction from all of the attendees. The level of market and technological acumen was exceedingly impressive. I think I came away learning more than I taught others, and that’s always a win in my book.”

“Intimate and accessible. Great content!”

“The best event of everything we attend all year. Love how everyone stays together, and the venue is spot on!”

“Excellent networking event! This was our first time participating in the event and will likely be back next time. Thank you for everything that was done to plan and execute this event, it was EXCELLENT!”

We look forward to seeing you in Park City this June!
