Exhibitor Perspectives Wayne Caverly Caverly Consulting Group I ve been coming to the conference since 1985. Number one, I come for the business opportunities and to meet people. This conference gives you the ability to see people from all over Canada in one place. The organization of the conference is great, because it s the main event at that time without competition, it gets delegates to focus on the exhibit hall. Partnering with other associations builds interest locally and nationally it s a great conference. Jim Gay Pharmacist Jones Healthcare We had a wonderful experience, we talked to so many people, it was well attended, everyone was engaged. Jones does a lot of things, everyone knows our product services, but not everyone knows about our professional and technology services. This conference was a way of putting this forward. The dialogue with thought leaders was great. Canadian Pharmacists Conference 2016 Sponsorship & Exhibitor Prospectus 15
