New Orleans, you showed up and showed out! Connect & Collab: The Mixer for Movers and Shakers was everything we envisioned and more! We took networking beyond the conference floor and brought a little New Orleans flavor into the mix! From thought-provoking discussions and fresh perspectives to music, laughter, and great company, the night reminded us that some of the best conversations happen when we come together outside the usual setting. A huge thank you to everyone who came out, our incredible speakers and special guests, and the team at Vyoone's for helping us bring this experience to life! #aaacdfi #ConnectandCollab by @aaacdfi
