We're a little late, but after a busy start to our 2024 we wanted to share a quick look back at our 2023. This was the year we went back in-person after the pandemic, and loved every minute of it. It was great seeing some of our longtime conference contributors and seeing the reactions to our new events. But what we really loved at the in-person events, was seeing people network, make connections, and find inspiration. We realized how much we were missing those moments. We're looking to continue that spark again this year. We want to give a huge thanks to everyone that travelled or logged in online to help us out and contribute to each one of the healthcare events we held last year. We simply wouldn't have been able to pull off what we did without you. P.S.
