These are built-in opportunities to meet fellow attendees. Resist the urge to go back to your room or to a local restaurant \u2013 the halls will be packed with your peers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.petfoodforumevents.com\/agenda\/\">View the agenda<\/a>\u00a0to see the schedule networking times.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Seek opportunities:<\/strong>\u00a0Valuable connections can happen anywhere, anytime. Stay open to unexpected encounters and strike up conversations with people outside your planned interactions. You never know who you might meet!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pre-event powerhouse:\u00a0<\/strong>Before the event, leverage LinkedIn, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.petfoodforumevents.com\/attend\/app\/\">Petfood Forum app<\/a> or email to reach out to existing contacts and schedule meetings. This is a great way to reconnect with vendors, clients and partners.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spread the Word (and network!):<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/app.ingo.me\/q\/vip0r\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Share this Linkedin social media graphic<\/a>\u00a0(we\u2019ve got you covered!) to let your network know you\u2019ll be attending. This sparks pre-event connections and gets the ball rolling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Follow up is key:\u00a0<\/strong>Don\u2019t let the connection fizzle out after the event! Send personalized emails or LinkedIn messages thanking new contacts for their time and expressing your interest in staying in touch. Remember, networking is a marathon, not a sprint \u2013 consistent communication fosters a strong professional community.<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Schedule highlights: Networking at Petfood Forum<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4>\u00a0<\/h4>\n<h4><strong>APRIL 27:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>4:30-6:30 pm<\/strong><strong>: Petfood Forum and Petfood Essentials opening reception<\/strong>,\u00a0Kansas City Power &amp; Light District<\/p>\n<h4><strong>APRIL 28:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>7:00-8:00 am: Breakfast<\/strong>, Room 2215<\/p>\n<p><strong>9:00 am &#8211; 6:00 pm: Exhibit hall open<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>9:15-9:45 am<\/strong><strong>: Coffee break,\u00a0<\/strong>Exhibit Hall C-E<\/p>\n<p><strong>12:15-1:30 pm<\/strong><strong>: Lunch<\/strong>, Exhibit Hall C-E<\/p>\n<p><strong>2:35-3:10 pm<\/strong>:\u00a0<strong>Coffee break<\/strong>, Exhibit Hall C-E<\/p>\n<p><strong>4:15-6:00pm<\/strong>:\u00a0<strong>Exhibit hall happy hour<\/strong>, Exhibit Hall C-E<\/p>\n<p><strong>4:15-6:00 pm: Women in Petfood Leadership networking event<\/strong> during happy hour, Exhibit Hall C-E<\/p>\n<p><strong>4:30-5:30 pm<\/strong>:\u00a0<strong>Student and industry research poster meet-and-greet<\/strong>, Future of Pet Food Pavilion, Aisle 3000<\/p>\n<h4><strong>APRIL 29<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>7:15-8:15 am: Breakfast<\/strong>, Room 2215<\/p>\n<p><strong>9:00 am &#8211; 3:00 pm: Exhibit hall open<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>9:30-10:00 am<\/strong>:\u00a0<strong>Coffee break<\/strong>, Exhibit Hall C-E<\/p>\n<p><strong>12:00-1:00 pm<\/strong>:\u00a0<strong>Lunch<\/strong>, Exhibit Hall C-E<\/p>\n<p><em>BONUS NETWORKING:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.petfoodforumevents.com\/petfood-essentials\/\">Petfood Essentials<\/a>\u00a0is an interactive, informal educational pre-conference seminar, held the day before the opening of Petfood Forum.
