As a new member or a first-time attendee, we know it's not easy being the new kid, but we’re here to help you make the most of your first CFA National Convention! 

The Welcome Networking Reception, is the first networking event of the CFA National Convention where attendees can mingle and connect with peers!

This is the place to get to know some of your fellow franchise peers as well as your appointed Convention Ambassadors. For our returning guests, this is an opportunity to get to know the new faces of franchising, expand your connections, and especially welcome them to the CFA community, or the opportunity to reconnect with long-time friends.
