The sessions matter. The people in the room matter more.

Past Conventions have put lenders, factors, attorneys, and finance leaders from across secured finance in the same hallways, the same cocktail hours, the same follow-up calls that turn into deals. That's what SFNet's 82nd Annual Convention is built for.

November 10 to 11, Marriott Marquis, Chicago. Harnessing the Winds of Change.

Who from past Conventions are you hoping to run into again? Comment below and register now!
