"One of the best, if not the best, conference I've attended in the past 11 years."
"Very good. I learned a lot about Product Stewardship at this Conference and the potential for expanding/integrating this area."
"The level of sophistication on the part of the speakers is impressive. It is clear that they know their stuff (and network very well.)"
"Especially in light of budget/travel reductions, this is one of the "must go to" conference of the year!"
"Very worthwhile, and a great networking opportunity."
