Join us as we kick off the Reed Conference by hosting a Welcome Reception at The Hall at Patriot Place presented by Raytheon on the eve of the conference. The Hall at Patriot Place presented by Raytheon is an exciting venue and boasts a modern museum that takes guests through Patriots and New England football history in a cutting-edge way. Kick a field goal, join the offense in a huddle and listen to Tom Brady call plays, and take pictures with the Lombardi trophies and Super Bowl rings! Enjoy hors d’oeuvres while catching up with colleagues, mingling with friends and networking with vendors.
