PROGRESS PARTNERS NETWORKING EVENT

Progress Connect 2017 “Why this Event?” (Video)

“Progress Connect creates an incredible environment of discourse, discussion, discovery.”

– Sam Thompson, Senior Managing Director, Progress Partners

On October 11, 2017, over 300+ C-level and senior leaders from some of the top Media and Internet technology companies in the industry gathered together for one day. Through this annual fall event, Progress Connect continues to provide an environment for connections to be made that may not otherwise happen. Through encouraging people to abandon their office for a day, participants meet new people and discuss topics they may not otherwise have a chance to think through.

All of the companies represented at the event are some of those pushing the industry forward. It is people like those who attend Progress Connect that incite change in the Media, Marketing, and Advertising tech industries.

“Our belief is that if you don?t get out of the office and into rooms like this, and really talk to other leaders in the industry, you are in danger of not being aware of what?s going on,” noted Nick MacShane, founder and senior managing director at Progress. “Progress Connect is our way of mixing things up – to act as stimuli for people in ad tech, mar tech, and digital media, and to get people thinking in ways they wouldn?t normally do.”
