Join us along with 200+ of the top east coast food bloggers, food media and social media influencers for a day of inspiration and techniques.

•    Brands that want to connect and form partnerships with food bloggers

Can non-food bloggers attend?

Yes of course!  A lot of our chats will be focused on food content, but anyone interested in SEO, monetization, content creation and syndication will walk away from our event with useful information.

What you'll learn?
