Networking Event
As part of the conference, the evening of February 27, 2026 will include a 3-hour networking event for all conference participants/speakers and NFL medical/performance staffs who are attending the NFL Combine. There will also be the opportunity to engage with researchers who will be presenting their posters at the event.
There will be finger-food and an open bar (beer/wine/cocktails) during the networking event. Participants will also be able to engage with select/relevant exhibitors and their products in a casual environment (list coming soon).
The event will run from 6-9pm at the NCAA Hall of Champions, which is a pretty sick venue. There are tons of exhibits along with some sport simulators (like hitting a tennis serve) and a basketball half court so you can dunk on other attendees.
The goal of this event is to create connections between the diverse conference attendees.
Again: Open bar. Some food. Cool space. Need I say more?
