VIP Experience: Collaborate with fellow executives in a relaxed environment

At DCD, we believe events should be memorable, experiential, and based on individuals meeting individuals.

When you register for a pass, our team will curate a personal agenda for you based on your unique procurement needs.

Your personal agenda will include invite-only sessions designed to help you face your operational challenges head-on, and meet fellow delegates who are tackling similar problems.

This will allow you to seamlessly network - and collaborate - with your peers.

All VIP delegates have complimentary access to the dedicated DCD Business Lounge, too, where you can schedule your own meetings with fellow delegates & event partners.
