ad:tech Attendees to Get Busy Wednesday Night

Posted by Steve Hall on October 31st, 2010at 5:54 pm

The party invites continue to roll in. What can we say. We are an industry that loves to party. Oh, wait. That would be network. This is business after all. Anyway. In addition to previously mentioned parties, we have four more to tell you about.

One Wednesday night, November 3, which is becoming a very busy night, Direct Agents, at 7PM, will host its After Dark Party at Hudson Terrace's Salon. This is the same location (but a different room) as the Epic party which begins at 9PM. Two parties at one address? How efficient.

Also on Wednesday night, November 3, Clickbooth will host its Affiliate Apocalypse Party beginning at 9PM. The location is yet to be announce to stay tuned here or be sure to check the ad:tech party calendar for the latest updates.
