The goal of the event to improve individual online business efficiency, identify new technologies in the industry, increase web traffic and conversion rates. Social Networking and Online Community Experts will illustrate various business models and opportunities that exist worldwide. In addition to back-end software, new technologies for social networking, website design and other items important for running a social networking website site, this annual event will also discuss all forms of global marketing for various regions (both online and traditional marketing). This is a fast-paced event on cutting edge techniques specifically designed for social networking industry. Having a "take the ball and run with it" approach, little to no time will be spent on introductions, summaries and overviews.

This two day Social Networking Conference will consist of morning seminars and lectures, followed by afternoon workshops. The workshops will consist of a series of 90 minute intensive lectures that are designed to improve online community business performance (many will focus on working business models for Social Networking, increasing web traffic and conversion rates). SN and Community industry executives all stand to learn a great deal in these workshops and are welcome to interject their questions at anytime. Significant time will exist for networking as well.

Exhibitors will also be present and all are urged to meet these companies in person to network and build relationships. We also expect many marketing executives will attend the events and we expect to see many over the weekend, as we've set the location in Miami,....(ahem)....adjacent to the beach.

If you've never been to our events before, you will learn a lot while at the same time make alot of friends in the industry. We trust that you will find this event exciting, fun and a great learning experience. I hope to see you there!
