It may seem far away, but May 16th 2016, the day INTX kicks off in Boston, is just around the corner. INTX is the industry’s can’t-miss event, the ultimate coming together of the digital economy’s builders, creators and visionaries. In other words, INTX is an event as much about connections and conversations as it is about attending programs and visiting the Marketplace floor. That’s why we’ve taken such care in curating great digital spaces that ensure you can get the most out of your Boston experience.
First, there’s @intxNCTA, INTX’s home on Twitter. Here you’ll find a steady stream of show news and information that will both help you prepare for a great show as well as keep you in the loop mid-event. Plus, during the show you can count on Twitter to serve as your digital help desk. Need to know where an event is being held? Just ask @intxNCTA. And when you’re Tweeting, don’t forget to use the show hashtag #INTX2016. We’ve had our show hashtag trending on Twitter every year since 2013. Let’s keep it going!
We’re also on Instagram as @intxNCTA. Instagram may be a little quieter than Twitter leading up to the show, but once the show hits, Instagram explodes! Share your experiences and discover what other people are seeing so you don’t miss a thing. As with Twitter, use #INTX2016 on Instagram to stay in touch with the whole show at once. We’ll also be posting our favorite moments and letting you know about special events on Instagram that you may not have read about in the show program.
INTX is also on Facebook. Like Twitter, Facebook is a great way to keep up with show news and even announcements. Check Facebook frequently for the latest deadlines and key information.
Finally, there’s the INTX LinkedIn Group. This is a space that’s truly for you, the INTX attendee. Start the important conversations that you want to have and join into those already taking place. Make connections, build relationships, set up important meetings, and share articles that will not only help you have a better INTX experience, but can grow the experience of others. LinkedIn is your chance to become a show influencer in whatever way you choose.
Creating spaces that build connections is more than just a digital exercise. The show itself is focused on building meaningful networks – right down to the construction of the floor. Unlike past years, INTX 2016 will have General Sessions and INTX Talks right on the Marketplace floor. There will also be special social spaces included for pop-up learning, networking, and just for a quick re-energizing rest. All this adds up to even more chances to interact, build important connections, and expand your INTX experience. Take a look at the floor plan below and start planning out your INTX strategy.
As more details about the show come out, we’ll share them first on our digital channels, so follow Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn to stay on top of INTX 2016. We encourage you to jump in on the conversation and we can’t wait to see you in Boston next May!
