Keynote Panel in the House

This just in: our keynote panel has been confirmed. And it's going to be amazing.

Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan, founder of Apartment Therapy.

Grace Bonney, founder of Design*Sponge.

Jean Aw, founder of NotCot.

 

Among the three of them, we're looking at something crazy like 5 or 10 million (or is it 20?) social media impressions each month. You will want to hear what they have to say. To learn from their collective wisdom. You will not want to miss this. Period.

Non skiers, sleep in, grab breakfast and meetup for casual networking and discussions with fellow attendees before you head on your way.

Travel safely everybody.

Note: the Agenda is subject to change. We'll let you know if it does.

Snow Forecast = Thumbs Up

  

We've already had a decent amount of snow here in Salt Lake — in these parts that's a sure sign of a fantastic ski season ahead. Which is good news for all of us.

 

You know what else is good news? The fact that you can come to Alt and then double dip and go to the Sundance Film Festival as well. I mean come on — how cool is that? Have you ever been to Sundance before? (And been able to write it off as business expense?)

 

This is a 100% don't miss opportunity.
