We just wrapped the 45th Annual ANMA Convention and Educational Seminar at the Westgate Las Vegas, and members are calling it one of the best years yet. In this episode, we are taking you straight to the exhibit hall floor to hear from our president and the exhibitors who make this event what it is. Attendees told us the education was insightful and spot on, the exhibit hall was fantastic, and the comment we heard most "These are my people." Among three days of speakers, CEUs, a busy exhibit hall, and our new exhibitor raffle, this year was as much about connection as it was about education. Some of the best moments happened in the hallways, over lunch, and in conversations between sessions.
