5:00 pm – 7:00 pm WIT Connect Silent Auction

A runaway hit in 2007, the Silent Auction begins early and continues through the start of the Live Auction. Silent Auction candidate bids typically begin around $500 providing an opportunity for bidders to compete for executive meetings regardless of the size of their budget.

With 500+ guests expected and professional auctioneers, the Live Auction offers fun, entertainment and the majority of the fundraising for WIT’s programs in 2008. Live Auction candidate teams are invited to step up to the stage, interact with the audience and raise the bidding. As a member of a Live Auction team, we know you’re eager for details on what is expected of you and your company. WIT will supply more details approximately three weeks in advance of the event.

Rest assured, you’ll receive pointers on the best ways to help raise the stakes as well as assist you in reaching out to your vendors to encourage them to come and bid on you.
