Business Meetings

Our unique format provides a targeted & intimate opportunity for you to showcase your products & services that can assist the delegation with the challenges and opportunities they face each day. Unlike a trade show or conference, where attendees walk from booth to booth hoping to find something useful, our format provides attendees the opportunity to sit down in a relaxed environment to discuss initiatives with senior executives from companies that can assist them with their needs. These private business meetings are pre-scheduled several weeks prior to the summit via our proprietary online scheduling software.

"This is my 4th CraigMichaels Summit and I find them informative with great interaction. I can't say enough about the CraigMichaels organization and staff skills. All of my experiences at similar events have been marginal at best. You all do it better and you are the best!”

“Excellent experience! Very well organized, professional, great team! The participants are engaged and very easy to talk to. I have attended two summits and found the accommodations to be both beautiful and inspiring."

Ignaz Gorischek

Vice President of Store Development

NEIMAN MARCUS GROUP

“I have attended a multitude of events over the years and have been the President and Board Member on many of these organizations. But I must say that the professionalism, personal benefit and vendor interaction here is far superior to all other events out there.”

Ed Bordelon

Director of Facilities

DARDEN RESTAURANTS, INC.

“Very good experience. For my first time I thought the style and content were superbly managed. The intimate size really allowed for some meaningful dialogue.”
