OVERVIEW KEY ISSUES EVENT BACKGROUNDInfluence is quickly becoming the benchmark for how people identify top brands, top executives, and top content, and is central to consumer and B2B decision making. All companies, and particularly those in the media industry, must understand and leverage influence to succeed in a rapidly changing environment.

Future of Influence Summit will explore, discuss and answer key issues including:

• What are the key characteristics of the influence landscape?

• How is influence shifting to the central role in marketing and advertising today?

• How do you tap the power of influence in content and publishing?

• What is the role and power of reputation in a post-media world?

Event partners of all types are an integral part of making any event successful. This year the Future of Influence Summit will bring together a wide variety of organizations to create exceptional value for all participants.

Future of Influence Summit will be promoted through The Insight Exchange’s extensive global network as well as the event’s association, media, blogger, and content partners. We will market the event through other marketing channels such as direct mail, twitter, email, and videocasts. Finally we will practice what we preach and build a powerful influence network to reach the most prominent people in the industry.

You can get participate in this landmark event through the sponsorship opportunities in this document. Whether you’re looking to leverage influencers, market your products or services, or be acknowledged as one of the top companies in the influence landscape, we’ll work with you to achieve your goals through your involvement in the Future of Influence Summit. We look forward to making the event, the attendees experience, and your involvement a resounding success.

Future of Influence Summit, produced by The Insight Exchange, will re-brand and build on the success of the Future of Media Summit. Over the past three years, the Future of Media Summit has become the most prominent brand globally in the future of media, and was the world’s first event to feature cross-continental panel discussions by video.
