The Chicago ad:tech conference is always much smaller than the coastal behemoths New York and San Francisco but the “windy” city (which, by the way didn’t get it’s name from the wind , rather the “windy” politicians) has its charms.
For those of you that value conferences for the “networking,” ad:tech Chicago’s opening night party kicks off at 8PM on Tuesday.
On September 1, ad:tech will kick off its fifth annual show in Chicago. It will focus on helping companies build their brands in a digital world. The event will take place from September 1-2, 2009 at Chicago Navy Pier.
