This year promises to be our biggest and, if we can say so ourselves, our best yet! Do not miss this!
“Bringing the Running Industry and Triathlon Industry together in one central location to meet in person, social network and do business together to support continual growth of the industries, education and encouraging best practice sharing” There is nothing else quite like TRC24 + TIC24.
We have so much in store for you, and over the coming weeks we’ll be launching our "Road to TRC24" mailer series for all registered attendees. This conference is a safe business-to-business (B2B) space and all attendees are fellow Running Industry Alliance (RIA) and / or Triathlon Industry Association (TIA) Members.
