SWIVEL Digital and Creative Marketing Conference

Dates

October

Swivel is a digital marketing conference all about engaging today’s trends in digital marketing, search, technology, and advertising from every angle. In a literal sense, to swivel is to turn on your axis which is firmly anchored at its center. The Swivel Conference does just that, providing a 360º view of the cutting-edge technologies and practices presented by today’s thought leaders in digital marketing. And we have 5 really good reasons why you need to attend.

If you are a marketer, a business owner, a writer, designer, strategist, or a creative innovator, the Swivel Conference is the event for you. The Swivel marketing conference challenges you to explore, to be moved, and to lead the way in your industry. Swivel is held every October in the heart of entrepreneur-land, Bend, Oregon. Not only can you take-in some of the best mountain views that the Pacific Northwest has to offer, but enjoy amazing craft beer from Bend’s 20+ and counting craft breweries. Experience innovation at it’s finest in the historic Old Mill District where the Swivel seminar holds multi-track sessions and workshops so you can choose your own keynote speakers and learning adventure.
