The Enterprise 2.0 Conference provides programs that deliver pure education, not product pitches. Our mission to be an independent and reliable source of advanced knowledge is compromised when speakers present marketing information. Pitching rather than teaching reflects poorly on both the speaker and his or her company.

Our conference attendees have repeatedly affirmed this principle when giving us post-event feedback. Provide conference attendees with what they want and benefit all of us.

If you are interested in marketing opportunities at Enterprise 2.0, please contact Matthew Balthazor at .
