SESSIONS
From the agenda page, you can navigate to individual sessions. On each session page, you can learn more about the session topic, access the profiles of the presenters and download any documents provided by the speakers. Once the session begins, you will be able to chat with other attendees, staff and the presenters as well as post your questions directly to the speakers.

TRADE SHOW
IMPACT is made possible with the support of our partners: Convercent by OneTrust, NAVEX, Center for Audit Quality, CohnReznik, ComplianceLine, Pacific Strategies & Assessments, SAI360, True Office Learning and Vault Platform. Please show them your appreciation by visiting their virtual booth and leaving your virtual business card.
Each day, there are several Virtual Trade Show hours scheduled before the IMPACT day begins, during breaks and after the IMPACT day ends. Check the booths to see if they in-person meetings or content scheduled, prize drawings and more. During Virtual Trade Show hours, you can enter their virtual booth – allowing you to enter a Zoom-like conference room with booth staff.
NETWORKING
The heart of every conference is connecting with your peers. While it’s not quite the same as bumping into someone at the buffet, we have many opportunities for you to connect with colleagues, speakers, sponsors, ECI Board members and staff during and after IMPACT hours.
Besides joining the Watercooler Break rooms and receptions, you can connect with other IMPACT attendees and participants by sending them a message through Pathable or requesting a private video meeting.
