    When attending a conference like MDMC, you meet like-minded marketers and entrepreneurs. You also meet people who do EXACTLY what you do, serve EXACTLY who you serve, and speak EXACTLY your language. Some of us jump immediately to seeing these people as competitors and try to figure out how to position against them. However, there is a growing trend in St. Louis and throughout the midwest of collaboration over competition. During this panel featuring cooperative companies, Influence & Co, Beanstalk Web Solutions, Atomic Revenue, Decantery, and Bright Coral Creative, we will share how each company focuses on inclusion, collaboration, and community building. We’ll share answers to questions like “How do you determine what companies you can work with even when you do the same kind of work?” and “How do you develop strong partnerships with other companies?” Other speakers at the #MDMC conference include Matt Kamp from Influence & Co, Josh Edler from Decantery, Victoria Ziglar from Bright Coral Creative and Steph Nissen from Atomic Revenue.

    Gender bias and discrimination are still running rampant in the digital and tech industries, which now include marketing, advertising, and communications. We’re nowhere near where we should be and we need to mobilize for change. Never before have women been so powerful. So entirely capable of actually making a difference. Why? Because we have digital. Digital is our power. Sisterhood is our secret weapon. Uniting is a must. Together, we aim to connect women in digital through engaging and educational events and then to enable them with the confidence and membership tools they need to exchange their power. The men who support us will understand our need to gather alone to regroup, share and find our sisterhood.
