Get ready to reach new heights in networking!

Here are some tips for leveraging the networking events at the AAA/CAA Automotive Conference:

  • Networking sessions will be held in the foyer outside of the general session ballroom. All refreshment breaks, the welcome reception, and the awards reception will take place in this area.
  • Set-up is available starting at 2:00pm and must be complete by 4:00pm on Tuesday, November 7th.
  • Any remaining items must be removed by 5:00pm on Thursday, November 9th.
  • Your organization will have a 30” round, tall table as base camp.
  • No displays, pop-up signs or posters are expected. Even literature should be limited. 
  • Given the traffic of this high-visibility area, there is no power available.
  • There are no formal appointments with club representatives; however, we encourage you to set up your own meetings with club delegates. 
  • Drawings for giveaways are not planned, but you can offer one if you wish.
  • Best practice: Bring reports of club performance to help focus strategic conversation.
