What is the Reverse Expo and how can I participate?

OR Manager Conference’s Reverse Expo takes place on Sunday, October 27, from 2-5 pm, followed by a reception with cocktails and hors d’oeuvres. Considered “speed dating for business,” you will have the opportunity to meet with suppliers in short, 8-minute meetings where you can get straight to the needs of your facility and 100% attention from the vendor representatives. Meetings are assigned based on mutual preferences of both you and the vendors.

Those involved in the purchasing process for their facility will be approved to participate in the Reverse Expo. Interested in participating in this event? Please express your interest during the registration process; we will contact you to confirm your participation. To learn more about the Reverse Expo and how it works, click here.
