Social Calendar
Conference attendees work hard during the day, but after the technical sessions conclude there's time to unwind, reconnect with old friends, and network through after-hours socializing.  PCIC Social Events are open at no additional charge to all attendees that have registered for the full Conference along with their guests.

​Make sure to check your Social Calendar and the Conference App for updated information.

If you are hosting an event or a hospitality suite, please review the PCIC Rules for Vendor Etiquette.

PCIC Conference Social
Sponsored by the Local Committee, this is PCIC's premier social event.  This year's Monday Night Social [insert theme here].  You will not want to miss this opportunity to meet friends and colleagues in this relaxed, elegant cocktail setting, held in the Junior Ballroom on the third floor of the Duke Energy Convention Center.  It should be noted that the PCIC Conference Social is intended to be a formal event, rather than a business meeting, and as such is it strongly encouraged that men wear a jacket and tie, and that women wear cocktail or semi-formal attire.

These often long-running events are hosted by vendors for the enjoyment of PCIC attendees and guests, and are non-commercial in nature.
