exclusively at F3: future of freight festival

Marketing & Media Summit

Are you a marketing expert who is looking to take your game to the next level? Think you have what it takes to compete against the best of the best?

For the first time, F3 will offer attendees a one day session – the Marketing and Media Summit – where marketing and brand experts from some of the hottest brands will share insights on how to leverage all forms of modern media (social media, influencers, digital, and video) to tell your story, grow your business and sell your product.

As part of this summit, FreightWaves will hold the first ever Ultimate Marketing Challenge, and three winners will receive prizes totaling $100,000 to accelerate their marketing efforts!

What is the Ultimate Marketing Challenge?

Join us at F3: Future of Freight Festival’s first ever Marketing and Media Summit, where you will not only have the opportunity to exchange ideas and learn best practices from both industry and non-industry peers, but also compete with those across our industry who are pushing boundaries.

Share your pitch with us at the Ultimate Marketing Challenge, and you could take home one of three prizes to accelerate your marketing program. The competition is open to attendees of F3 only, and companies can sign up to participate on a first-come-first-serve basis – no exceptions! When space is gone, so is this opportunity!

First Place: $50,000 FreightWaves Media & Events credit
Second Place: $30,000 FreightWaves Media & Events credit
Third Place: $20,000 FreightWaves Media & Events credit

The FreightWaves Media & Events credit can be used to accelerate your outreach through custom branded content, targeted newsletters, digital advertising, FreightWaves TV shows, event sponsorships and more!

Who should participate?

Designed for freight media, content and marketing professionals, the F3 Marketing and Media Summit will provide a space to exchange ideas, learn best practices from both industry and non-industry peers, and recognize those who are pushing boundaries.
