ABOUT THE FUTURE STARS PROGRAM
BIA/Kelsey instituted the Future Stars program in 2012 to provide early-stage startups access to the networking and learning opportunities available at our annual conferences, while also spotlighting the spirit of innovation that is driving the local media and marketing industry. While the program has evolved, it remains focused on this dual mission. Since the inaugural program, 77 startups have participated.
The Future Stars Registration Package is available at all BIA/Kelsey events. At our annual SMB Digital Marketing conference each fall, the program involves additional features, including an opportunity for on-stage participation and a demo station in the Exhibit Hall.
