Definitely nothing like it for coming in physical contact with a large number of potential JV Partners of all levels of experience and success in a concentrated period of time. Getting to know one or two new acquaintances can easily turn into a number of potential JV relationships through referral and introduction. But I would seriously recommended working on those at your level or slightly above if you're new rather than chase the Big Dogs all weekend. Grow and work with your circle the right way and you'll grow right along with it. And make sure your own house is in order before inviting anyone else in.

Cheers,
