I love conferences, I love to attend, network and track new trends. I love to speak, contribute and share. Luckily, I joined several conferences till now as a speaker. With the list I shared below are some of them that I would like to attend in 2013. It would be great to find a conference sponsor for myself 🙂
PS: I like to follow marketing, digital media and mobile events, nowadays I am in search of big data events. It is the future of tech!
