Join SLC|SEM as we kick off our 2012 search marketing series on January 18th, with special guest speakers from Bing.com's Video Search vertical and the Sundance Institute, in honor of the annual Sundance Film Festival which officially runs from January 19-29, 2012. 

Since Bing.com has been an official sponsor of the Sundance Film Festival for the last several years, we thought it only appropriate to dedicate the evening's discussion topics to Video Search activities, and talk about the audience development opportunities search and social sharing present to online marketers.  

Fittingly, the January SLC|SEM event marks the beginning of our new partnership at host venue, The Leonardo - the newly renovated Arts, Science & Technology Museum in Downtown Salt Lake City. 

Beginning with this event, we'll be hosting our monthly networking and educational seminars for search marketers at this fantastic venue. Registered attendees may tour the museum (on the same day of) our evening event at a reduced entry fee of just $5 (regularly $14!).  

Join us for an evening of exceptional company, conversation and content. Drinks & food will be available. 

Featured Guest Speakers January 18th:

Microsoft's growing search engine now has over 30% of market share, and is sharply focused on being present in pop culture and is leveraging online video, particularly in the entertainment vertical to grow their online audience. 

Bing.com will share insight into what the online video landscape is looking like now based on ongoing and emerging consumer behaviors, what the opportunities are as an industry, what Bing is doing now and how online marketers can start taking advantage of what Bing is doing with video.
