The Venue: Delamar Hotel

Positioned directly on Grand Traverse Bay with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the water, the Delamar Traverse City provides the sophisticated, distraction-free environment that world-class research discussions demand. The venue's intimate scale + thoughtfully designed spaces are purpose-built for the kind of event we're creating:

Small enough to foster genuine dialogue, elegant enough to reflect the caliber of minds we're bringing together, and isolated enough from everyday demands to allow deep focus on advancing tendon science.

With private meeting facilities, award-winning on-site dining, and complimentary airport shuttle service, every logistical detail is handled so speakers and attendees can focus entirely on what matters: challenging ideas, debating methodologies, and pushing the field forward. The waterfront setting isn't just beautiful—it's intentional. When leading researchers and practitioners gather between sessions on the terrace overlooking the bay, or continue case discussions over dinner with sunset views, the barriers between formal presentations and authentic collaboration disappear.

This is where breakthroughs happen—not in sterile conference centers, but in spaces designed to make world-leading experts feel inspired, valued, and genuinely engaged.
