What is your cancellation policy?
Registration is complimentary…what’s the catch?
There is no catch, but we do require a $1 processing fee and you must agree to our cancellation policy. Please read it closely below as there are fees if you cancel within a month of the event. This is because we are committing ($$) to your accommodations, meals and activities that are non-refundable to us within a month of the event. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask us!
Cancellation Policy for Complimentary Registrations:
- Less than 4 weeks prior to the event – cancellations received after this date are subject to a $499 cancellation fee. Fees will be waived if a suitable replacement from your organization is sent.
- Less than 1 week prior to the event – cancellations received after this date are subject to a $999 cancellation fee. Fees will be waived if a suitable replacement from your organization is sent.
Who will be speaking?
SLIF is unlike a traditional conference. The content we present at our live event includes Innovation Talks, fireside chats, and facilitated discussion groups led by provocative thought leaders from outside and inside the industry. For the developing list, click here.
Can my spouse attend the events?
Your spouse is welcome to come along with you and enjoy the resort while you are at the event. You can register your spouse to attend the Monday night party once our Attendee portal is open. If space allows, we will open up the Sunday networking events to spouses the week prior to the event. Guest fees apply for both.
What is the dress code?
The entire event is casual (no suit or jacket required). We recommend bringing a sweater or light jacket for evening outdoor events and sessions that take place inside air-conditioned ballrooms.
