FOLIO: Growth Summit — March 16-18, 2009 - (Page 3)

it’S timE Dear Colleague, Growth is your primary objective in any environment, and it remains so even in a challenging environment like 2009. Which makes a vigorous exchange of ideas—a deep dive into who’s doing what that’s working—more important than ever. That’s what the fifth annual Folio: Summit is all about. Conceived in 2005 as an event for the entrepreneurs in larger and small publishing companies, the event has grown and evolved remarkably since then. We’ve modified the name this year to focus on growth. It not only telegraphs our intent, but it zeros in on your objective. The Folio: Growth Summit provides magazine-media company managers the most intensive, immersive experience in solution-oriented education available anywhere in the industry. Attend this conference and you’ll get access to the industry’s leading experts; content ideas and solutions that are relevant to you, whether you’re a small-company executive or one at a larger company; and opportunities to connect you with your peers, as well as the industry’s top suppliers and thought-leaders. Our format provides education in two Salons—one for larger-company executives and one for smaller-company executives to ensure every session and every idea is relevant and applicable to all of our attendees. And we’ve created a third new element, the Folio: Editors’ Trendwatch, a series of roundtables on the industry’s top trends and interpretation of Folio:’s exclusive research. Each Workgroup will have a team leader, handpicked by Folio: and personally invested in content development. It will be our and the team leader’s responsibility to make sure that each and every question and concern from each and every attendee is addressed. Over the course of two days, you’ll be part of an elite group of executives, gathered for a common purpose: Succeeding and thriving in one of the most challenging environments in memory. You’ll walk away inspired and energized with a tangible list of takeaways, from trends and tips to stats and strategy, deep dives into hot button issues such as events and digital, and more that you can apply to your business to boost performance. We’ll see you there! CoNFErENCE HigHligHtS tHE iNNovAtioN ArENA This specially-designed space is the conference home of the industry’s leading suppliers.
