For international delegates
Not only can international delegates attend all the plenary and concurrent sessions, but also the events specifically designed for them. These include, for those attending for the first time, a specific welcome and orientation session on the first day, before events start to swing into action.
A highlight is the international reception on Wednesday night, once again sponsored by Orkin. This is always a very sociable event and a great place to catch up with all those from overseas.
On Thursday afternoon, the Global Pest Management Coalition is holding an open meeting. All international delegates are most welcome. Come along and find out what this group has been working on.
The event finishes on Friday evening with the PestFest closing party. With the event in Texas, this promises to be a high-energy, Texas-style closing party with live music, great food and drinks and plenty of fun. Boots, hats and Texas flair encouraged!
Full details of all the sessions can be explored on the PestWorld website.
