Main Conference Day One: The main conference days are not to be missed. High impact presentations that get to the meat of the subject, panels that debate the hottest topics, and more mingling than you can imagine. We didn’t even mention the parties in the evening!
Keynote Guest Speaker: Location Is (Still) Everything: The Surprising Influence Of The Real World On How We Search, Shop, And Sell In The Virtual One David R. Bell Marketing Guru and E-Commerce Expert Author Wharton Professor Wharton professor and marketing expert David R. Bell argues that the way we use the Internet is still largely shaped by the physical world that we inhabit. Anyone can go online and buy a pair of jeans—but the likelihood that we would do so depends to a significant degree on where we live. The presence of stores nearby, trendy and friendly neighbors, and local sales taxes, among other factors, play a critical role in our decision-making process when it comes to buying online. So too, our willingness to search for and consume information depends on where we live and who we live next to. Bell offers a fascinating, in-depth look at online commerce and retailing through his years of research and investing and advising experience. His unique GRAVITY framework is a powerful and practical tool that explains how the real and virtual worlds connect and what Internet sellers must consider in order to succeed. David will also be available for a book signing – you can pick up a copy of his book “Location Is (Still) Everything” during the morning break

The only way to encounter these are to, frankly, screw up - so this session will help prevent that. • Inter department relationships and the most important ones - from the top down • Inevitable conflicts they should be prepared to encounter • Managerial techniques based on personality types
