Spark of Genius Camp – Austin dates

Introducing Spark of Genius Camp

Are you tired of seeing the same “experts” on stage, regurgitating what you already know or what you’ve already read on AG? Don’t you want to have a frank discussion with other professionals that are actually solving problems on the ground, and learn about their successes and failures, and maybe even share your own?

We feel the same way, which is why after years being the leader in facilitating this conversation online, we have finally found the perfect format to take the conversation offline in a way that is not about speaker egos, and not about shoving vendors down your throat.

Introducing the Spark of Genius Camp, kicking off in AGBeat’s hometown of Austin, Texas. Whether your brand is B2B or B2C, this is a camp designed to turn down the hype, spark ideas, and send you off with actionable solutions to ignite your business.
