These Roundtables are designed to convene a group of your peers to discuss your communications challenges and exchange ideas within an "open forum" structure as we move through these uncertain times. We will be hosting multiple Roundtables throughout the year. Our first two Roundtables will be held virtually and we plan to hold in-person Roundtables during the second half of the year.
The first Roundtable will be held as a separate event on Wednesday, March 24th. The second will be held Friday, May 7th, in conjunction with our 35th Annual Ohio Employee Ownership Conference.
We are monitoring distribution of the vaccines, as well as guidance from relevant federal, state, local, and university officials on how to move forward with in-person events. Currently we are cautiously optimistic that we can begin hosting in person events by late summer. With that in mind, we plan to schedule in-person Roundtables in the second half of the year.

Like you, we can't wait to get back to in-person events. Also like you, we need to ensure the safety of those we work, and get together, with at all times. We are monitoring distribution of the vaccines, as well as guidance from relevant federal, state, local, and university officials on how to move forward with in-person events.
As it stands now, we are cautiously optimistic that we will be back with in-person events starting in late summer. With that in mind we are planning the following in-person events for the second half of the year. Right now our target date for the in person version of this program is early October, 2021. We are prepared to offer the program virtually if necessary.
