Love the list here. ContentJam in Chicago is one I personally love and have attended the previous two years (http://www.contentjam.com/).

I also wanted to share a resource that we developed for marketers and content marketers looking to plan their conference schedule for 2017. We developed an interactive that displays all the major content marketing conferences in the U.S. for 2017.

Along with being able to choose a content marketing conference by geographical location, you can also filter by date, specialty and cost. We also list the hashtag for each conference so that you can see what people are tweeting about. We also direct you to the website of each conference and give you the ability to add each conference you are attending or have interest in directly to your calendar. The functionality of this interactive is extremely useful for anyone wishing to attending content marketing conferences in the upcoming year.

Would love to see any feedback that anyone has on this or if they find it helpful, please shoot me a message.

Hey Michael, this content is very easy to visualize and use for our marketing calendar of events! Thank you for compiling this. I noticed that there is one conference missing on October: Spredfast Summit in Austin, TX where 500+ social media leaders joined us from 200+ global brands, media, and agencies. Brands include American Airlines, ESPN, Target, Airbnb, etc. We would love to be added to the list, let me know if you have any questions or if we can help you in any way vpenaloza@spredfast.com.

Here’s another for your great list!

Where:The Ohio State University

Overview: Interact17 is a fun, fast paced two-day event featuring in-depth digital marketing workshops and industry leading speakers sharing insights on content marketing, social media, search and all-things-interactive

This is a great list overall! There is one more event I think would be a great addition to this resource. Spredfast’s annual Smart Social Event in London this June. It is an event focused on providing insight to social media marketers on how to prove the value of social across their organization. Last year Smart Social London hosted 200+ of the smartest enterprise social marketers in the region. You don’t have to be a Spredfast user to learn a great deal and network with marketers of your caliber.

We would love to be featured on your list for 2017. Please let me know how this is possible. Thank you!

Hi Mitchell, there’s another event that I trust would add up to the list. It’s Digital Advice Live! and will be held on the 21st September 2017 in London.You can check it out here: http://live.digital-advice.org/
The event is focused on the topic of guided selling and tackling need-based personalization and is organised for international retailers, brands and service providers.
We’d be happy if you could include our event in your list.

I would like to suggest another event for your great list!

Name: Eventful Forum
Date: September 14-15
Location: NYC
Overview: Eventful Enterprises presents the second annual gathering of the Eventful Forum, an executive conference dedicated to addressing the future of business through the world’s converging industries. Last year, EF2016 hosted participants from 12 cities around the country and 4 countries around the world. For this year’s followup, EF2017 will be the first conference anywhere to bring the martech and fintech worlds together under one roof, to address the most urgent and actionable collaborations needed for facing the imminent new paradigm of virtualized consumerism.

Hi Mitchell,
Thanks for a great article regarding marketing conferences in the world. It really comes in handy during the year – I actually visited a few of those you recommended and there wasn’t a single disappointment. I’ve wondered if you could list one more – ResponseCon. It’s quite an up-to-date thing, the event will take place in variety cities in the USA. The speakers seem to be rather interesting – Michael Brenner (Marketing Insider) and Owen Video to name a few. And one more cool thing – with the hosting cities being Boston, Denver, Austin and San Diego, it’s never too far 🙂 Check it out and decide yourself –https://www.getresponse.com/responsecon.
Thanks again!
Best,
Abbie
