The second annual FOBM full-day conference will focus on the future of the business and trade media industry, and the changes brought along by consolidation and digital media.

In a year that saw News Corp. finally absorb Dow Jones, CNBC fend off the launch of Fox Business, the Thomson Reuters merger go through, TheStreet introduce Main Street and BusinessWeek introduce a search product, what were the trends, who were the players and where will business media be this time next year?

Join us at the Edison Ballroom in New York City on October 28 to discuss these topics and more. This is just one part of our trifecta of conferences, taking place the day before EconSports and EconWomen.
