WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
We have intentionally designed this conference and looked for speakers that cut across different business sectors and industries in order to expose everyone involved (speakers and attendees alike) to new and different ideas. It’s our philosophy that someone working at a Fortune 500 company has as much to learn from a small Mom & Pop business about the application of social media, as well as the other way around. If you are open-minded and willing to go outside your comfort zone, then this conference is for you. If you’re not open-minded, well, we’d still like to have you attend and see if we can change that.
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN
Lunch is included with all registrations plus a special afternoon coffee break with cupcakes from Cupcakestop. Taste what all the sugar buzz is about!

*Cool Twitter Conferences tries to limits its impact on the environment wherever possible and practical. We kindly request all attendees and speakers (including ourselves) to donate $5.00 per person toward offsetting the carbon we all release into the atmosphere through our travel to the conference (by car, by metro, by plane, by train). 100% of these funds will be donated to the Carbonfund.org organization and requested to help finance their Wildlife Refuge Reforestation project in the Tensas River Valley of Louisiana.
