For our October event, we’re excited to be partnering with FashioNXT to bring our members an exciting panel discussion on the future of fashion eCommerce.
In integrating with Portland’s leading fashion show, we’ll be brining in panelists from both sides of the table, inbound marketing and fashion eCommerce technology, to answer the important question of “What’s Next in Fashion eCommerce“.
Attendees can expect an engaging dialogue about what new trends in fashion retail technology mean for search marketers and also what trends in inbound marketing mean for retailers and designers.
Our great lineup of panelists includes people from backgrounds ranging from inbound marketing and e-commerce SEO to 3D modeling technology, push notification marketing, and Tumblr e-commerce.
Following the exciting panel discussion, attendees can join FashioNxt for the night’s runway show. Tickets for the runway show are sold separately and can be purchased at FashioNxt’s website. Use the promo code Fnt15210 to get at 10% discount.
