CONNECT. ENGAGE. EXCEL. This is a different event, unlike any you've attended

Built on genuine interactions and spontaneous connections, the Forum is a unique opportunity for practical discussions among emerging leaders in the land use planning field.

"The Forum is a gathering of like-minded professionals discussing and brainstorming solutions to the pressing issues of our industry. It is an invaluable opportunity to have frank talk with your peers to exchange ideas, experiences and knowledge."

Lincoln Lo Principal Malone Given Parsons Ltd. Markham, ON

"The Forum is incredibly unique, its focus on discussion provides for an unparalled opportunity to tap into the wealth of experience and knowledge held by our learned peers. The inclusion of various professional disciplines in the forum brings different perspectives to complex issues, which you may not typically consider in your daily practice. I am honoured to have been given the opportunity to participate."

Kristie M. Stitt Associate Kagan Shastri LLP Toronto, ON

"The Forum format allows for more candid and open debate/discussion. It allows the conversation to go in directions not typically allowed for in other conferences or professional development courses."
