Atlanta’s First Industry Leadership Summit Announced for November 7, 2013

Leading organizations such as  Atlanta Tech Village, Tech Journal, BusinessWire, Octane, Write2Market, Access America and TEDxPeachtree focus on industry leadership in Atlanta

Atlanta’s new hot ticket for emerging industry leaders is a fact-packed, fast-paced one-day conference limited to 100 attendees. The Industry Leadership Summit will be held November 7, 2013 at Atlanta Tech Village, in the newly remodeled conference center, and is hosted by conference organizer and industry leadership consultant Write2Market, Inc.

The Industry Leadership Summit is proud to announce its early speaker line up including leading thinkers in industry, technology, business and entrepreneurship. Among confirmed speakers are Ted Alling, CEO of Access America, who built his logistics and transportation firm into a $600 million powerhouse; David Cummings, the Atlanta legend who recently sold Pardot for $110 million and has established the largest tech hub in the South; Cyril Turner, CEO of Delta Private Jets and Delta Global Staffing; and Becky Blalock, author and former CIO of the Southern Company.

The innovative approach of the Industry Leadership Summit is specifically designed for C-level executives with at growth stage companies. Attendees will start the day with an industry leadership evaluation, and work through creating an action plan for their firm to achieve recognized industry leadership. 

A key feature of the program is deep-dive planning tracks facilitated by local business gurus.  “Most conferences, like Inc. Magazine’s popular GROWCO series have leaders seated in sessions—this summit is different. Our attendee is ‘thinking’ and actively engaged much of the time with a facilitator or the panelists. The attendee is driving,” says one of the conference team planners, Ashley Wilson of Write2Market.

Sponsors include thought leaders like BusinessWire, Uber and One to One.For the full speaker line up, visit www.industryleadership.com. Registration is open now and special leadership discounts are available through September 30th.
