Now that you’ve got your sea legs, day 2 brings us all together again for another festive opportunity to really dive into the Expo Hall. You’ll expand your network, make more contacts, schmooze with solution providers, and enjoy more drink and munchies in what will be the most productive happy hour you’ve had, maybe ever.

Industry Insights Lounge and Big Idea Wall

Schedule TBD

You asked for it, you got it! Our attendees consistently tell us they want more opportunities to meet others from their own vertical industry, so this year we’re launching the Industry Insights Lounge. Located on the exhibit floor at the back of aisle 400, this area provides a place for those in key industries to network and share ideas. Be sure to check out our interactive “Big Idea Wall” where you can either describe a challenge or recommend a solution, providing both tangible value and natural conversation starters.

Expo Prize Giveaway

Thursday, August 6 | 3:45 – 3:55pm

The Expo Hall showcases 60+ vendors with the goods to improve your processes and services, that’s a given. But did you know many of those exhibitors participate in a raucous raffle giveaway that brings us together for a chance to win some super-cool tech prizes? Yep, and going home with an unexpected (and valuable) gift, is always a nice bonus.

“Thursday Night Fever” Conference Party

Thursday, August 6 | 7:00 – 10:00pm

Grab your most far out disco garb, put on your dancing shoes, and hustle on over to the MGM Grand’s electric nightclub at Hakkasan! Get down on it and enjoy beverages, light hors d’oeuvres, and plenty of far out 70’s entertainment. We’ll party to the max...can you dig it? (If you’d like to bring a guest, additional party tickets are on sale at the HDI registration desk.)

Solutions Spotlight Sessions

Wednesday and Thursday during Expo Hall hours

The Expo Hall is an expansive area with a wide variety of solutions providers. So it can be difficult to really dig in and engage with those who can help us succeed. That’s why we’ve set aside a special area where you can meet peers who share your challenges and watch customized product demos from top solution providers.

SupportWorld Live Fun Run and Walk

Wednesday and Thursday | 6:30am

Rise and shine! Get caffeinated and hydrated then stretch out your hammies for a sunrise walk/run with fellow attendees. Start your day as you get the blood flowing and heart pumping—and participate in a really fun and organic way to meet new contacts and make new friends.
