E3 Kickoff and Dinner
Build it. Nurture it. They will come.
Gen Z and Gen Alpha are built differently. Their viewpoints, backgrounds, and digital behaviors make these audiences exciting, yet challenging demographics in which to market programs, events, and ideas. Come explore with Laurie Ehrlich, Founder and Chief Strategist of Elevate Marketing Strategy and get to know the E3 community. Dinner will be served!
