You’ve bought your ticket to CFY24, booked your hotel room, and arranged your travel. Now there’s just one thing left to do: pack!  

Packing for a professional conference can be daunting, so we made a list to get you started. Here’s some suggestions you’ll need when you come to Reston this fall:  

• Three days’ worth of professional clothes and comfortable shoes (plus some casual clothes to wear in the evening) 
• Pen and paper or laptop (your preferred method of taking notes)  
• Business cards or the LinkedIn app (to connect with attendees and speakers) 
• Phone charger (so you can connect with your fellow attendees and snap pictures all day long) 
• Water bottle (to Rev Your Bev and stay hydrated) 
• Healthy snacks (to fuel busy days) 
• Breath mints (to stay fresh when networking)  
• A hobby to unwind at the end of the day (like a book, yoga mat, or running shoes)
