The Women of LGBT Week NYC
This year, as our annual conference on LGBT Marketing, Advertising & Technology has grown into an entire week's series of conferences, symposia and forums, we have an incredible line-up of women speaking and presenting at our conference for the first time.
On Monday, April 20th, Jenn T Grace, our community's "Professional Lesbian," leads a series of workshops dedicated to start-ups and entrepreneurs. Along with Diane Conklin of Complete Marketing Systems out of Atlanta and Sarah Prager of Quist out of Washington DC, they will lead our audience through some of the ins and outs of inclusive and integrated marketing and help business start-ups learn more about laying the foundation for their LGBT/LGBT-friendly business.

She will touch on the fact that over the past 5 years, lesbians have been included in more advertising campaigns, but that there is still a lot of room for improvement. In this session you will learn about the potential of the lesbian market and how to reach this market.
