Key components include:

  • Plenary, education and demonstration sessions, and industry experts
  • Activities, tours and evening social networking event
  • Sponsor and participant engagement in main stage ballroom
  • The Great Innovate Competition to improve real processes

Key goals include:

  • Showcasing best practices and real results achieved
  • Training attendees with actionable skills
  • Connecting people of all skills and abilities
  • Having fun!

Join the movement!

This is not just an event, it’s a movement! Every year Process Palooza is made possible through the generosity of our sponsors. See who has joined the movement this year!
