Who Attends?
New as well as experienced Virtual Assistants gather at the IVAA Live Summits to learn, be inspired and network with peers. Although most Virtual Assistants are IVAA members, non-members are welcome to attend as well as those considering the Virtual Assistant profession.
Vendors that support the Virtual Assistant industry also are present and prizes given to attendees.
Where Are Live Summits Held?
IVAA Live Summits are held in metropolitan U.S. cities, easily accessible
to international airports. For the first time, the 2009 IVAA Live Summit
was held in Montreal, Canada in response to the association's increasing
international membership.
Hotel locations are selected to best accomodate the size of the conferences, close to metropolitan centers within walking distance to shopping and restaurants.
