Recap: Apra Prospect Development 2017
We’ve just returned from sunny California. Last week, four members of the iWave team gathered in Anaheim for Apra Prospect Development 2017. We met prospect development professionals from across the United States, Canada, UK, and beyond. Needless to say, we had an amazing time. Therefore, we wanted to share our #myAPRAstory about this great event.
Special highlights
California sun, good food, great hospitality. What’s not to love? Here are some of the highlights from Apra PD 2017:
- Two symposiums (New Researchers and Data Analytics) where attendees were treated to challenging and insightful breakout sessions
- A heartfelt and inspiring keynote by Derreck Kayongo, Global Soap Project Founder and CEO of the Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta
- An awesome 30th Anniversary Celebration – who knew there were so many great dances in one room?
- A special presentation on Apra’s past, present, and future with four of the best and brightest minds in prospect development.
Also, on Thursday afternoon iWave hosted two vendor sessions. CEO Gerry Lawless shared details on a new and enhanced PROscreen. Thank you to everyone who attended the session. If you missed the session and want to know more about our prospect research solutions, learn about PRO here.
And thank you to everyone who stopped by the iWave booth. Gerry, Ross, Mark, and Ryan are especially thankful to our clients who offered advice and suggestions. If you’d like to leave additional feedback, reach out anytime.
If you want to share your own photos and stories from Apra PD, tweet with the hashtag #myAPRAstory. We had a great time in SoCal and look forward to meeting everyone again soon. See you next year in Pittsburgh!
