I'm a DetroitYES newbie, thanks to Lowell presenting at a Social Media Club Detroit event last week! His story about building this site is amazing. Thank you Lowell for suggesting I let the DetroitYES community know about the FutureMidwest Conference taking place at Eastern Market April 28-29.

FutureMidwest is now in its third year, and this is the first year it's taking place downtown. There are three sessions over the course of two days. During Sessions 1 and 3, professionals with extensive digital, marketing and strategic backgrounds will teach attendees “what” they should expect to see in the coming years and “how” to successfully capitalize on marketing and business strategy trends by utilizing the Web and digital tools.

Session 2 will provide attendees with the opportunity to network with each other, presenters and professionals from the startup community, VC firms and a variety of other industries and backgrounds.


If you've ever wondered how the Web and online tools can play a part in growing your business and becoming a smarter marketer and/or business owner, you'll find this conference valuable.



To get a sense of the pride and optimism for our region's revival FutureMidwest instilled in attendees last year, check out this video:
