In the digital marketing industry, changes happen literally every day. With that in mind, it’s more important than ever for teams to budget time and money for industry conferences in order to keep current on trends and emerging technologies. Not only do these conferences bring together some of the industry’s best and brightest minds, they also allow for employees to step away from the screen and step out of their comfort zones to seek ideas and inspiration. We encourage all of our employees to attend at least one conference each year!
That said, the cost of attending a conference can come with a high price tag – so it’s important to do your research and make sure the investment is worth your money and time. To that end, we’ve compiled a comprehensive list of digital marketing conferences (with locations, dates, and prices) to keep in mind as you plan your professional development over the next year!
