Pack the projector! We’re excited to announce the Lava Row Summer 2009 Road Trip, where we’ll be taking our social media educational seminars to various cities across the great State of Iowa. During these sessions we’ll explore the social media landscape, define how it applies to your business with real-world case studies, and explain what might be coming around the corner.

Before each seminar, attendees will have the chance to foster new connections during a “speed-dating” style networking event. Not only do we want you to walk away with actionable information about how to expand your digital footprint using social media, we also want you to grow your personal network and make new business connections. Tickets are $30 for professionals and $10 for students and yes, lunch will be provided!

Starting in June, we’ll be visiting Ames and Cedar Falls, with stops planned for Council Bluffs, Sioux City and Iowa City during the rest of the summer months. The full schedule is outlined below, although please note that we are still finalizing venues and dates and we’ll be updating this post as we go.

Huge thanks go out to the Iowa Department of Economic Development for their help in supporting these events! Visit their website at IowaLifeChanging.com.
