Create a Trip Report After COMVEC™
Once your manager sees all of the new business contacts you made, how much you learned, and how that knowledge can be applied across your company, they will be more likely to send you to COMVEC™ again, or even join you next year! Download a sample trip report here.
Share Your Knowledge with Your Coworkers
Bring your COMVEC™ materials back to the office to share with your coworkers. For example, the Event Guide is extremely valuable as it includes information on the robust list of exhibitors and sponsors. Also, offer to present your learnings at a future staff meeting.
