Several months ago we announced that PAB2009 is taking place June 19-21, 2009 at the Holiday Inn Kingston Waterfront in Kingston, ON (Canada). Today, we are unveiling the next wave of important information.
First up, the theme… Outside-in: Learning from beyond the fishbowl. The concept behind this theme is to evolve the conversation from being inside the fishbowl to drawing on skills, communications styles, experiences, innovations and people from outside of the social media and new media communities. We want our program to energize, motivate and advance the community. ANYONE interested in submitting a speaking or JOLT proposal within this theme should click here and read the details in the post. Like last year, we’re asking speakers to model their sessions on the TEDtalks.
Second… as of this moment, you can register for PAB2009 at the early registration rate of $120/person. This rate is available until midnight on December 31 or if we reach capacity of 120 people, whichever comes first. Beginning January 1, 2009, registration becomes $150/person. ANYONE interested in attending is invited to register and be a part of an amazing community and an incredible event.
Finally… this year you can reserve your hotel room online. The Holiday Inn is in the process of renovating all of its hotel rooms so, by the time the conference begins, the hotel will have made the shift from the 1970s to the 2000s. Remember to reserve your hotel room at the conference rate of $160/night (plus taxes and parking) while rooms are still available. Rooms have two double beds and complimentary high-speed Internet access.
Don’t forget, PAB is promoted through word-of-mouth. Help spread the word!
