On the afternoon of Sunday, September 24, early arrivals are welcome to beat the rush and grab their badges and printed programs, and then join Seattle International Foundation and other attendees later that same evening to unwind with a drink after a long day of travel at the welcome reception. CADF 2023 will officially kick off on Monday, September 25 at 9:00am, but may include one or two breakfast sessions prior to opening remarks.
