WineVit 2023 Pt 2
From the Ag Information Network, I’m Bob Larson with today’s Fruit Grower Report. WineVit 2023 is coming back in February when members of the wine industry will gather at the Three Rivers Convention Center in Kennewick.Washington Wine Growers Association Assistant Director,
Sarah Higgins says WineVit kicks off with a networking reception at the Industry Research Snapshot, or poster session, Monday night …
HIGGINS … “That is an opportunity to meet with and talk with those researchers, to see the work that they’ve been doing, to view that work throughout the event. But then, very specifically, we’ve also added on Monday this reception called WINE, the Washington Industry Networking Experience, that is in association with our Industry Research Snapshot.”
And, Higgins says it will be very low-key …
HIGGINS … “It’s a wine reception for students, professionals and all of our industry members to kind of kick off the convention on Monday, and have this networking opportunity where you can casually connect as opposed to, you know, having to sit and listen to a lecturer up on the stage. This is the interactive piece.”
That, Higgins says will get you a jump start to WineVit …
HIGGINS … “And it also is a great opportunity to register before the lines get long the next day in advance of the sessions that will come.”
Higgins says registration for attendees opens in November, but registration for exhibitors in the trade show is open now.
