What Happens at Each haustalk?
For each haustalk, we invite one predominant business professional to emcee the event. We include guest panels that are made up of professionals who serve as an authority on each subject. The emcee asks the panel questions and engages the audience to begin a conversation about the topic. Open networking sessions are held before and after the panel discussion.
