Private Roundtables:
The PeerPod private roundtables are closed-door, invite-only, off-the-record group conversations among 12 to 15 handpicked, invited executives. Led by a chairperson, each session is approximately 90 minutes allowing for candid conversation among peers to share information, compare notes and generate ideas on industry challenges. Topics are determined in the week prior to the conference and sourced directly from participants.
What participants get out of the PeerPod private roundtables:
Participants love the private roundtables because they offer an opportunity to get beyond the public information to a more in-depth solutions-focused conversation that is confidential. The goal is that everyone walks away a bit wiser with more tools in their toolbox, as well as some new or renewed connections. Private roundtables are more exclusive and include more senior executives. Private roundtable participants are considered “Featured Participants” and are listed in the event materials alongside other speakers.
Who can join a PeerPod private roundtable:
PeerPod private roundtable participants are selected in advance of the conference and require an invitation to join. Each participant must meet selection criteria of the specific session to be considered for an invitation to that private roundtable. If you do not meet the criteria, you can still gain access via sponsorship, pending availability. Sponsored spots on private roundtables are extremely limited. Inquire with Samantha Williams at sam@greenpearlevents.com about joining a private roundtable.
