Hi ##firstname##.

First of all, I hope all is well!

I wanted to let you know that we now have an almost complete program for the 18-20 Summit. And, of course, I'm grateful and happy with you being part of it!

The latest version of the document can be found and downloaded here on the site 😀. 

As from today, we'll also start with some more communication actions in order to make more people aware of the event. As said earlier, the goal is not to have as many people as possible there, but to connect with the right ones taking the scope and the mission of the network into account. Honest objective: 120-150 people present.

If you want, you can help give the event an extra boost by notifying your network that you're speaking at the Summit. What helps the most is making 1-3 people aware of the event, preferably the ones that would find value in attending, but also could bring value given their expertise. You can just refer them to our event page and the recap of the 2022 edition.

We're offering a 20% discount code that you can share with your invitees. The discount is limited to the first 20 users. The code can be entered during the registering process and will grant access to the 'Referral ticket', which equals a Non-member ticket. Use ticket code: SUMMITREFERRAL20.

We also created a communication package in which you'll find 2 ready-to-use copy suggestions for a social media post, and 3 visuals that you can choose from to add to the post. Find the package here.

Who's the main target group? People as yourself: open minded and/or entrepreneurial academics, R&D and innovation people in startups or industry, and experts working in the field of sports/fitness/health interested in evidence based tech (and how to develop, validate, bring to market and implement those products). 

That said, please share any ideas, suggestions or concerns that you might have. We'll be updating the program further based on your feedback. And of course, all of this will only increase the relevance of the connections being made there.

Finally, we'll communicate with each of you further in the next weeks regarding practical details for your session, talk, etc. As always, in case of questions, just shoot! 

Looking forward!

Cheers.

Kristof, with special thanks to Merel for all the support.
