(NASDAQ: SOFO), the trusted market leader for video management and academic, enterprise and event webcasting, today announced its Mediasite Events group will webcast the 20th annual Meeting Professionals International Southeast Educational Conference this week in Orlando, Fla.
The conference, sponsored by the four Florida chapters of MPI, takes place August 8 to 10 and is hosted this year by the Greater Orlando Area MPI. The conference attracts an average of 550 meeting planners and suppliers, and this year’s theme focuses on moving onward and upward in an industry that is experiencing change at lightning speed.
