Attendee Lists – Exhibitors Take Note
Unaffiliated entities sometimes claim to have a list of Connect 351 attendees available for sale. In the past, some of these emails have even included the MMA logo, taken without permission from our website.

Please note that the MMA is the ONLY source for a list of Connect 351 attendees, and the MMA will provide that list to exhibitors after the conference. Do not respond to any email offering an MMA attendee list from any MMA event.

If you receive an email about the MMA and are uncertain about its legitimacy, please contact MMA Event and Development Specialist Stacey Compton-Maga at [email protected].
