Welcome! Let’s do this.
What You Can Expect at the Conference?
I envision the conference as a two or three day event in Chicago, on the weekend of October 1st a weekend in either August or October of this year, 2011. I would hope that many financial bloggers would want to attend and participate. I would also really like to see finance industry company bloggers there. In addition, I could see these people attending: financial columnists and authors, finance service professionals, and those people interested in blogging and social media.
The agenda, which hopefully you will help me create over the next few months, will likely include plenty of networking time, panel discussions, speakers, break-out sessions, and a few social gatherings. I have some experience with the WordCamp style of conference and so this event will likely mimic that style. Topics will obviously be in the personal finance and blogging/social media areas. It will be exciting, useful, and rewarding. You will leave encouraged and connected.
