Connecting

The 2023 Global Connect event brings together the best of the Adirondack Summit, RMS World, and Global Connect events for three days of learning, networking, or collaborating. Sessions will be offered for all three solutions and networking opportunities will bring together the StarRez, THD, and Mercury communities.

Learning Sessions

You will have a tough time trying to choose which sessions to attend. Sunday begins with in-depth classroom style learning-sessions lead by staff where we encourage you to bring your laptop or tablet device. The remainder of the conference features a wide range of learning sessions that can help you become more proficient with a range of features and tips from our subject matter experts.

Best Practices

Our most popular sessions are presented by your colleagues from around the world sharing real examples of how the community manages applications, room assignments, billing, communications, track resident engagement and more. You will find out first hand how other institutions are getting more value from the solution and delivering great resident experiences. These sessions will give you amazing insights to how others are getting the most from StarRez, THD, and Mercury.

Dashboard Competition
