To describe the Marketing Festival in just a few sentences would be a disservice. Being a part of its second edition felt like being a part of history. My prediction is simple; Marketing Festival will go places and will be a force to reckon with in the industry.
Marketing Festival was easily one of the most professional events I’ve ever attended or spoken at. The setting, technology and speakers were first class, and the attendees completely changed my perspective of European SEO.
The best way to describe Marketing Festival is ‘Work Hard and Play Hard’. I came for the amazing line up of internationally renowned speakers but ended up loving it for a whole host of other reasons too: beautiful city, great new friends and more!
There was not a single session that I didn’t enjoy and learn something from and the networking events were incredibly fun and well run. I’d highly recommend that anyone in digital marketing attend this event.
