Click Summit Overview

The 2018 Click Summit will return to Cary, NC and be held on May 7-9.

As one of the premier testing and optimization events of the year, the Summit brings together analysts, optimizers, and marketers from all areas of the country to share their ideas on testing and optimization. The Summit utilizes peer-to-peer learning, in the form of sharing successes and challenges, round-table discussions, and interactive conversations (rather than sessions).

The agenda is peppered with networking opportunities between the conversations. Attendees will have the choice of which conversations they want to attend based on their company’s specific needs. The conversations are led by the industry’s elite, but they are facilitated in an informal, round-table setting.

Yet another perk of Click Summit is that it provides exhibitors and sponsors with the beneficial opportunity to connect and interact with eCommerce leads while at the conference. List Genius is a great tool for companies to use as part of the preparation for events such as this.

The keynote speakers for Click Summit 2018 are:

  • Cal Fussman – Corporate Storytelling Consultant
  • Brooks Bell – Founder & CEO of Brooks Bell

A few of the moderators at this year’s event include:

  • Hung Ma – Sr. Director, Revenue, Traffic & Optimization for Barnes & Noble
  • Jay Larson – CEO of Optimizely
  • Blair Lyon – Vice President Americas at Dynamic Yield
  • Caitlin Anderson – Marketing Experimentation Manager at Uber
  • Robyn Kelly – Director, Digital Acquisition at American Express
  • Cris Dizon – Associate Director, Experimentation for Jet.com

Mid-May in Raleigh brings pleasant temperatures, but high humidity. The average high temperature for the conference dates is 79 degrees, and the low is 58 degrees. With the humidity potentially reaching 88-90 percent though, it will be muggy. There is a possibility of light to moderate rain during those dates as well.

Transportation Options at Click Summit

So, if you’re planning on staying close to the venue, you won’t need to plan on obtaining transportation of your own.
