UPCOMING EVENTS

There is always something on the ODA Calendar.
Make sure to check back here regularly for updates.

ODA hosts many events each year, like our monthly Webinars and our ODA Annual Conference. Some of our events are business related and some are purely social to allow you the opportunity to catch up with friends, make new contacts, and keep in touch with your colleagues in the industry. From time to time, our affiliate organisations also host events that may be of interest to Members and extend an invitation to our membership.
