FEI CANADA 2011 ANNUAL REPORT

FEI CANADA 2011 ANNUAL REPORT
FEI Canada’s Annual National Conference,
the grand finale to our calendar of events,
was held this year in Ottawa. The Conference
committee, chaired by Louis O’Brien, presented
one of our most successful annual conferences
ever – both financially and according
to the satisfaction ratings assessed by our
425 attendees. This year’s conference used
a mobile conference application, which allowed
delegates to get live updates and alerts at
the conference as well as plan their schedule,
participate in social network feeds, view
maps and floor plans and read exhibitor
information.
We received the following feedback from
members who attended the conference:
• Good mix of forward-looking and
technical sessions.
• There were many lessons that are
applicable or will be applied.
• I am looking forward to using the information
I received at the “Evolving Role of
the CFO” session.
• Terry Matthews is a fantastic speaker
and hearing from him again on a different
topic would be more than welcome.
• I really enjoyed round tables with best
business practices.
• Great gala concept, very effective for
networking, great food and wine. Congratulations
to your team for thinking of
this and pulling it off so nicely. The jazz
band was a nice finale.
