This fast moving (and fun) training session provides an opportunity to meet Bureau staff and understand the overall purpose of the Bureau departments. A review of upcoming events, as well as gaining a sense of how we use our members to sell Louisville, is the goal.

This bi-monthly fast & fun program allows partners the chance to educate Bureau staff on their products & services that are available through a 5 minute presentation in our board room. Only 10 partners per session, so register today to have your chance in the spotlight. Contact Michelle Penn by e-mail mpenn@gotolouisville.com or by phone at (502) 584-2121 to register.

Two educational seminars are also offered. The event is free, but reservations are required.
