Here's what attendees said about our last conference

  • "This was one of the best conferences I have ever attended, and you are to be saluted for bringing together 'enemies' to discuss common themes and goals. The level of the conference was highly strategic, and we don't get many of those."
  • "What I found most refreshing was the bringing together of the disrupters and the disruptees to share knowledge and move forward"
  • "Very good speaker lineup. Loved the diverse crowd."

What Makes Our Conference So Different

Networking is a valuable part of any great conference. You'll be able to mingle with colleagues from yellow pages, TV, radio, Internet pure-play, cable and newspapers who are trying to capitalize on the fast-growing $14.7 billion local online advertising industry. Our agenda, however, tends to be the biggest draw. Unlike other conferences, speakers are selected because of their understanding of "local" and their focus on "following the money" rather than the hype. We also take care to separate vendors from speakers, ensuring that you don't hear sales pitches from the stage. Vendors are a big part of the show, and we've already begun signing up the leading vendors to be available on the exhibit floor.
