A full slate of educational programming and networking opportunities are on tap at The Point for the spring 2022 High Point Market, including roundtables, mixers, lunch service, and more.

A popular pop-up structure, the High Point Market Authority has been offering a variety of guest services in the space since its debut in 2018.  Its convenient location on Commerce Ave, between S. Main and Wrenn streets one block over from the Transportation Terminal, makes it an easily-accessible information and programming hub.

The Point opens on the morning of Friday, April 1, and the programming is open to all Market attendees. Hours are 8am to 5 pm on Friday, April 1, and Wednesday, April 6, and 8 am to 8 pm each day in between, Saturday through Tuesday. During the hours of operation, a team of Market Advisors will be on hand to offer one-on-one consultations to attendees in need of information or support. Market-goers are encouraged to drop in throughout Market for specific events or to utilize the lounge area to regroup and recharge.

The schedule of events and programming changes daily. The most popular programming element to date, roundtables will be hosted daily at 10am and 2pm. Each 60-minute, interactive conversation will focus on an industry-relevant topic and be led by well-known experts.
