Thanks to our generous sponsors
This year, in an attempt to recreate the FFL Exhibit Hall, our generous sponsors and partners have really upped their digital game, working with the T-1 Today UK team to create an area where VFFL attendees can visit with sponsors, get the most current diabetes industry information, and even have some fun. We’re proud to be bringing this area, and we’re really grateful that our sponsors and our supporters have worked with us to see our vision for this year’s virtual event come to life.
