For the uninitiated, here’s a summary: experts and seasoned pros take 90-minute deep dives on a current marketing topics and use concrete cases to deliver tangible and actionable insights. And because we’re in a “classroom” setting, you’ll have the opportunity to ask the questions you’ve always wanted to. And class sizes are limited to 150 to make sure you get the most out of the session.

When does preregistration start?

On March 5, preregistration will be begin for ten (10) days.
