The networking reception featured Jim Karol, one of the most unique and amazing individuals of our time. He came a long way from the steel mills of Pennsylvania to become one of the most sought-after acts in the industry.

The closing ceremony featured Pete Charlie Hustle Rose. He was an amazing ball player who began his career in the 1963 season and was rewarded for his efforts that same season by being named National League Rookie of the Year. Later, he consistently batted over .300 and was an instrumental addition to Cincinnati's Big Red Machine that dominated the National League in the 1970s. In 1975 he was named the Word Series most valuable player, Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year and The Sporting News Man of the Year. In 1978 Pete signed as a free agent with the Philadelphia Phillies bringing the team to the World Series in 1980 and 1983. During the summer of 1984, Rose again became a Cincinnati Red, broke the all-time major hit record set by Ty Cobb's mark of 4,191 hits by one. Pete totaled an outstanding 4,256 hits before his final career at bat. Additionally, between 1963 and 1986, he won three World Series rings, three battling titles, two Gold Gloves and made 17 all-star appearances at an unequaled five different positions.

The Trump Taj Mahal offered a combined meeting space with many elating experiences including the Hard Rock Café and other renowned Zagat-rated eateries, entertaining night life, all within walking distance to the boardwalk and the shopping outlets.
