ROI Meet-Ups

In addition to the ROI Summit, regional gatherings and our newest ROI Connection Points, ROI brings its members a wealth of event opportunities throughout the year.

ROI Meet-Ups – ROI is eager to help its members move their projects, careers and lives forward. One of the ways ROI achieves this is by bringing unique offerings and opportunities to its members, like organizing admission and discounts to various conferences and arranging ROI contingents to attend great events. Wherever there might be a large group of ROIers expressing interest to attend a significant event, we do our best to support them in their efforts to do so. For example, in 2012 ROI helped 20 ROIers travel to Austin, Texas, for the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival: ROI arranged and covered the costs of members’ lodging and daily transport, organized a PR company to work with and advise ROIers in attendance and, through ROI Micro Grants, ROI subsidized registration costs and flights.
