VentureBeat hosts 6 industry-leading events in 2014 — here’s the lineup

VentureBeat is proud to announce that we’re hosting six industry-leading events in 2014.

The lineup includes long-standing events like our Mobile Summit, MobileBeat, and GamesBeat, which have grown in popularity and influence each year we’ve hosted them.

We’re also bringing back two relatively new events for a second edition: DataBeat and HealthBeat were both standing room-only successes in 2013, and they will be even bigger and better in 2014.

And we’re adding a brand-new event, GrowthBeat, which focuses on the data, apps, and science of successful marketing — or as some like to call it, growth hacking.

“We got a taste of it in 2013, but 2014 is the year of a new kind of corporate growth,” Matt Marshall, the CEO and founder of VentureBeat, wrote in an introduction to the events lineup. “It’s taken a while, but all of the puzzle pieces have fallen into place: Smartphones are now mainstream. Cloud is mainstream. So are big data tools, social networks, and new age, data-driven marketing software.”

All of these technologies are enabling companies that know how to use them to grow faster and smarter than ever before — and they’re driving revenues and profits.

At VentureBeat’s events, you’ll learn how to make these technologies work for you. You’ll also get unparalleled opportunities for learning and for networking, as all of our events are highly curated conferences focused on specific industry verticals and specific growth opportunities — both the content and the audiences are very focused.
