The Vision 3 Summit has gathered together some of the greatest and most innovative speakers in the industry, and we thought it would be a shame to limit the sharing of ideas and solutions to just the four days the conference takes place. In the coming weeks, this blog will play host to many of the leaders in the industry who will discuss how to take advantage of new technologies, stay ahead of trends, and become an industry leader.
