DFW AMA BEYOND BORDERS – GLOBAL MARKETING SUMMIT

“DFW Learned How to Capture The Next Billion Customers”

Dallas, TX – April 17^th marked the third year anniversary for the DFW Chapter of the American Marketing Association’s signature event Beyond Borders: Global Marketing Summit held at The Hyatt in North Dallas/Richardson.

The event featured keynote presentations and breakout sessions by corporate and agency leaders such as Gail Smith of General Motors, Shauna Heran of Fluor, Prashant Gandhi of McKinsey & Company, and Owen Haney of Slingshot Media. Speakers provided seasoned and novice marketers alike with best practice tips as well as counsel on trends in international marketing.

In talking with Jeff Bond, Beyond Borders Chair, he stated that, “This event was a tremendous success due to the high-quality speakers, relevant topics, and company representatives seeking valuable information they can use to drive their own marketing initiatives. Because it brought together members of the same industry who would not otherwise commingle, attendees gained insight into similar challenges they face. And through the networking opportunities throughout the day, participants were able to discuss solutions and take-away points for their own organizations.”

Nancy Moriarty from Mary Kay Inc. commented that, “The presentation by Fluor was especially insightful. For the value, I couldn’t have gotten any better information or training than what this conference provided. And on this note, we look forward to the limitless possibilities of next year’s Beyond Borders Conference.”
