The value of a conference and its educational content stems not only from your own personal experience, but also from the chosen speakers and what they have to offer. At the upcoming conference, we’ve chosen a panel of professionals from all areas of this industry to teach you about anything that might spark your interest. Here’s a list of headliners that we’ve set up for this coming February, and what topics they’ll be covering.
