Upcoming Feb 21 GROWtalks event

In 2011 I was able to attend the GROW Conference in Vancouver; it was easily one of the best conferences I’ve ever attended in terms of educational value. The organizers of GROW are now organizing a series of one day conferences called GROWtalks that are taking place in Montreal, Toronto, Seattle, Portland and Los Angeles. GROWtalks will be coming to Toronto on February 21st.

They’re bringing 5 of the top experts in from Silicon Valley along with some of our local experts to share the hard lessons they’ve learned on creating metrics for customer and product development, growth hacking, UX design, inbound marketing, conversion and engagement.

Speaker Scott Kveton founder of Urban Airship, raised over $21M and has grown revenues over 450% in 2012 alone. He’s an expert on business models and how to pivot to follow the money.

Much of my own interest is in UI, so I’ll be interested in the talk by leading Silicon Valley expert Kate Rutter, here’s her talk from last year – http://slidesha.re/XAs6NT

Other experts participating are Danielle Morrill (former growth hacker @Twilio), Laura Fitton (HubSpot), Brant Cooper (Lean Entrepreneur), and Dan Martell (Clarity/Flowtown) who will share candid details and advice and respond to questions.

The organizers have created a special rate for the Hamilton community – $145.
