Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) are core values to our association and its community of meetings professionals and hospitality partners and permeate every aspect of FICP. With our DEI Statement as a foundational guide, FICP events are planned with DEI in mind — from what you’ll hear on stage (i.e., session topics, speaker selection) to the organizations we partner with (i.e., venues and event partners). If you have any questions regarding how DEI is part of our planning process for the 2024 FICP Education Forum, please contact info@ficpnet.com.
