With partners travelling from across Canada and the globe, the WPC Canada team could not resist compiling some of our favourite restaurants, lounges, pubs and late night eats we discovered while in Houston. We know you’ll love this list, as we certainly enjoyed discovering them…for research sake of course.
The WPC 2013 agenda is filled with hundreds of business sessions and networking opportunities. To help plan your week, the WPC Canada Team has isolated key events, and networking activities to focus on during the week.
We hope you're getting ready for an incredible week of learning, knowledge sharing, inspiration, networking, meetings, business planning, memorable events, and an all up amazing Canadian experience!
