Virtual 2020 North America Regional Meeting a Success!
The 2020 North American Regional Meeting (19-22 October) took place 100-percent virtually this year. Partners, sponsors, Regional Coordination Offices, and GIO staff registered for this event from across the United States and Canada – with a total of 89 participants. The NARM featured 20 unique sessions and 23 speakers; in addition, 14 lightning talks were presented.
Due to the virtual nature of this meeting, GIO was able to use live closed captioning and networking sessions to provide avenues for participants to engage with the sessions and each other. Responses to the event have been extremely positive! Attendees noted their appreciation for the carefully planned agenda, relevant topics on the theme of data literacy, and excellent speakers who presented at the event.
