Conference Bay relaunches website, Opens up to the entire world
In a press release they sent out on Monday, Conference Bay, the one-stop shop for conference organizers and goers, announced the official launch of their remodeled portal and their decision to open up the portal to organizers worldwide due to user demand. The site was previously targeted for conferences within the Asia Pacific region only.
According to the press release, this new site developed by a design team that consisted of media powerhouse Ogilvy RedCard is to make it obvious to users that Conference Bay is not just an event listing company but also a portal which helps them save costs.
They have also released data on their progress since their initial launch in July 2007. There were more than 300 conference organizers using the site, listing more than 600 conferences in more than 30 countries and 70 cities around the world, all within 7 months. They have however left out the number of users that actually bought or bid tickets from the site, information that is definitely more important from a business point of view.
