Our mission has always been to reach dairywomen where they are. This means making more resources available to more of our members and reaching those that cannot be with us in person. Our national conference, Forward TogetHER, is no exception to this. It has never been more important than right now as we all maneuver this new normal. We are excited to shift our resources and attention to creating an exceptional virtual conference on November 3rd-5th. 

Our conference connects both producers and industry members to learn, grow and recharge their batteries, together. As we pivot our Forward TogetHER experience for 2020, these values will not change. In fact, we are finding even more ways to reach our members and provide a top notch, interactive and educational experience for everyone, no matter their location. We know that virtual meetings have become the norm and may be exhausting, but we at DGN are working to make this conference unlike any other virtual experience you have had before! As we work to provide a hybrid conference experience, some members that have already registered for the conference will have the opportunity to be a part of a live studio audience at the resort this November, while even more women will be able to enjoy the entire conference as a virtual experience as well. 

We look forward to still connecting hundreds of dairywomen, some in person, some virtually, to learn and grow through Forward TogetHER. This hybrid conference will be a full interactive experience and more than just an access to 25+ great speakers. It will be upbeat, fun and educational- unlike any virtual conference you have experienced before! This conference is tailored to women who are interested in growing their own skills in a multitude of ways and interacting with one another, and the hybrid experience will not change those outcomes, but amplify them!

If you have not yet registered for our national conference, we encourage you to REGISTER NOW for our online Forward TogetHER experience which will include a virtual Showcase, live streamed and recorded general sessions, access to all of our breakout sessions On Demand, interactive online opportunities along with a fun welcome night activity and networking time. Join us from your home, farm or work when it works in YOUR schedule!
