What is a Industry roundtable?

A roundtable is less formal, often starting with a few short presentations from industry experts to kick things off and provide direction. Both are led by a facilitator or moderator, with roundtable attendees invited to join the discussions and contribute to the outcomes.

MCCA members unite annually to discuss topics and trends that shape the MB customer contact industry. Board members facilitate group discussions while designated note takers capture the main idea of the discussions for future use.
