The Value and Role of Content Marketing
ROOM: 206AB
It seems like the old adage that ”Content is King” is alive and well as more companies recognize that providing existing and potential customers with a steady flow of content (blog posts, videos, whitepapers, case studies, podcasts, photos) is a great way to drive engagement, loyalty and stickiness.

Keynote Conversation - Joe Fernandez: Klout
ROOM: 206AB
Joe Fernandez is the Founder and CEO of Klout. Physically constrained while his jaw was wired shut for nearly three months, Joe began to develop a deep fascination with the evolution of influence within the social web. The way individuals could instantly broadcast questions, opinions, and ideas to their trusted network sparked his curiosity. In 2008, Joe started Klout in an effort to help businesses understand this individual user impact by providing context around who a person influences and what topics they are particularly influential in. Klout is currently the standard for influence on the social web. Previously Joe provided data solutions to experts within the Real Estate industry as Director of Innovation and Research at OnBoard Informatics. In 2003, Joe cofounded Evalulogix, actively helping over 5000 school districts meet their special education reporting mandates for compliance with NCLB and IDEA. Joe grew up in Las Vegas and attended University of Miami and Oxford University.
