Increasing traffic and conversion rates leads to increased LOVE
....and revenue!
Given the current situation in the USA, Europe continues to appear to be a more attractive sector for industry growth. European internet dating and European mobile dating have become a significant market for the Internet Dating Industry. The European Union (E.U.) is also economically larger than the United States. Since we began European iDate events, few companies in North America sought to pursue the E.U. customers for online dating and social networking. While this is changing now, an opportunity remains for entrepreneurs. Charts from iDate attendance history illustrate that Europeans represent the majority at the event. Not surprisingly, we have also found that those dominating their local E.U. markets reside within their spheres of influence.
We chose to have our 7TH annual European Internet Dating Conference take place on September 16 - 18, 2010 in Paris at the Hotel Concorde Lafayette, and note that the Ad-Tech London Conference takes place early the following week. This is the first year iDate will be in the international city of romance.
Attending Internet Dating Conference (2010 - Paris) will be:
Online Dating industry executives
Venture Capitalists
Software & technology executives
Telecommunication executives (including Mobile)
Social Networking senior executives
European Matchmakers
Marketing executives
Media executives
Payment processing executives
Affiliate managers
Affiliates and portal webmasters of community related sites.
Experts in management, technology and marketing for online dating & social networking with strong market experience within specific European nations will present. For example, we plan on having workshops covering the online dating and social networking market in Scandanavia, how to attract individials to a French internet dating website and how to retain them. The growing mobile market for both social networking & dating in the E.U. region will also be discussed.
Similar to the previous European events (2008-9 London, 2007 Barcelona, 2006 Amsterdam, 2005 Prague and 2004 Nice), this two day European Internet Dating Conference will consist of morning seminars and lectures, followed by afternoon workshops. The workshops will consist of a series of 90 minute intensive lectures that are designed to improve internet dating & social networking business performance, identify new technologies, seek business strategies, partnerships and opportunities. Some presentations will focus on: mobile technology for dating & social networking in the E.U., business models and payments, increasing E.U. dating/community web traffic and conversion rates. Language issues, cultural differences, technological developments and preferences for specific European countries will be covered at this event. Internet Dating industry executives, marketing representatives, technology executives, software executives, affiliates and affiliate managers all stand to learn a great deal in these workshops and are welcome to interject their questions at anytime. Significant time will exist for networking as well.
A special pre-event will exist for entrepreneurs looking to enter the business. Hosted by Mark Brooks of Online Personals Watch, a 4 hour intense session will go through all the aspects of setting up and operating an online dating operation. (Note: This session requires separate registration - More info on the Agenda Page.
In addition, the Social Networking Conference takes place down the hall. Registration to the iDate2010 Conference gains a pass to both events.
