Attention all early-stage technology companies based in the Mid-Atlantic Region.  This year's Phorum conference will be held on April 14, 2015 at Penn Museum in the heart of Philadelphia.  For the uninitiated, Phorum is a technology conference organized by the Greater Philadelphia Alliance for Capital and Technologies (PACT) which is designed to explore how companies are able to maximize the business value of specific technologies and how digital customer engagement is changing current business models.

Industry thought leaders as well as hands-on practitioners will engage participants through keynotes, panels and interactive discussions to help executives and their companies understand not just their technologies but how their technologies can be applied to transform their business models and achieve their strategic goals.  Click here to view a list of the speakers and panelists and to learn more about the conference as a whole.

In addition to the speakers and panelists, the conference features an exciting Demo Pit showcasing startup and emerging companies that provide technologies and solutions which help enterprise organizations better engage with their employees, suppliers or customers.  Over the last three years, the quality of the Demo Pit companies has been world class, featuring companies such as SocialLadder, UXFlip (subsequently acquired by Artisan Mobile), and award-winning PeopleLinx.

As a sponsor of this year's Phorum conference and one of the founding sponsors of PACT, Fox Rothschild encourages all startup and emerging technology companies focusing on digital customer engagement to apply to be part of the Demo Pit.  Click here to learn more about the application process.
