It is a good idea
 

I am licensed in PA, VA, TX, FL and my home state NY.  NY has had this for many years and it works great.  The suppliers all conduct lunch-and-learns, come to our office with lunch and do a one hour presentation about very relevant products and new technologies for our industry.  I have many retired and governmental Architects join us and at my age I am learning very useful new state-of-the-art technology.  My staff really enjoys the presentations and we are abreast of current and new technology about twice a month.  Free lunches are cool too!  It really is a good idea and kind of wakes up the dead wood in the industry.                                                                                                                                                          Type over this text and enter your comments here.
