The table to the right shows the Top 10 Forum sessions by overall ratings given in a post-Forum online survey, filled out by 115 respondents.

The graphs below show how the San Diego Forum programming measured up in comparison to that of past Forums.

In addition to these general ratings, many of you shared some more specific and candid comments about the Forum. Here is a selection:

"IAMC should be commended for the job they are doing to deliver value to its core membership (CREs) and associate members (economic developers and service providers). It is a balancing act and you are achieving results. Please continue to keep the membership balanced and manageable."

"I have recommended to my board that we get more involved with IAMC."

"The peer-to-peer and contested lease clauses programs along with the great general sessions were the highlights of the Spring Forum."

"On balance, the best forum I've attended (my 6th)."

As a charter member of IAMC, I am pleased with the return that my company has received for its investment in the organization. The Forums provide an outstanding environment for learning, both at the sessions and through the networking opportunities. The organization works very hard to provide the highest possible value to all members, while balancing the membership to effectively achieve this result. Many of my peers attended their first Forum in San Diego and expressed similar sentiments. Joseph D. Russo Director, Economic Development National Grid
