2014 NEDMA Annual Conference

The 2014 NEDMA  Annual Conference was a day to remember.

Like last year’s conference, the event offered informative sessions,  a diverse collection of exhibitors, and a large group of marketers from all over New England.  This year, the conference at Bentley University featured speakers from over 20 organizations and brought in a record number of attendees.

Here are some of the highlights that we’re still talking about here at Overdrive.
