06.09.2009 – Boulder, Colo. - June 8, 2009 - Chicks Who Click, a conference and
networking event for women engaging in social media, is expanding internationally
and will host its next conference in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Chicks Who Click is a community of like-minded women using social media to
further collaborate, listen, learn and experiment with new media tools that will
enhance their careers and personal networks. Conferences have sold out in
Kansas City and Boulder, Colo., and are also planned for Dallas, Raleigh, N.C., and
San Jose later in 2009.
The one-day conference will take place Saturday, June 26, at Listel Hotel, 1300
Robson Street. In addition, conference registration will also include a Friday night
networking session, Chicks Who Mix, at the Alibi Room (157 Alexander Street) and a
Saturday cocktail party.
“Chicks Who Click creates an opportunity for women to learn and collaborate in
social media whether you’re just getting your toes in the water or run your own
startup,” said Denise Smith, Chicks Who Click conference director.
Vancouver’s keynote speaker is Monica Guzman, the Seattle Post Intelligencer’s first
online reporter and the main contributor to The Big Blog. In addition to Guzman,
Chicks Who Click has 10 speakers including Rebecca Bollwitt, a renowned blogger
and co-founder of sixty4media; Megan Cole and Victoria Revay, Co-Founders
SPLRG; and Gillian Shaw, a journalist with The Vancouver Sun and Canwest. One of
the goals of each of these conferences is to highlight local speakers along with
national speakers.
Event sponsors include WalMart, Metzger Associates and Crocs.
The price for the entire conference weekend including all networking events and the
Saturday evening cocktail party is $220. Attendees who may need an introduction
