The Festival of Media, an event that focuses on media creativity and innovation will take place in Montreux Switzerland May 8-10. Speakers at the conference will include Facebook VP of Global Sales Carolyn Everson, Deutsche Telekom Head of International Media Management Gerhard Louw, MediaCom Worldwide CEO Stephen Allan, Nestle Global Head of Digital & Social Media Pete Blackshaw, Starcom MediaVest Group CEO Laura Desmond and many others which you can check out here.

Of course, none of that really matters right? A conference is a conference, right? But this conference is in Switzerland? Have you ever been to Switzerland? No, didn’t think so. Now you have your reason to check this conference out. And no, they didn’t pay us to say that. But they did pay us to advertise on the site. Just want to be clear here for all your transparency freaks.

The sad truth why adult children slowly stop sharing real things with their parents has nothing to do with distance or busy schedules—it’s that somewhere in their 30s they realized their parent would either worry too much, give advice they didn’t ask for, or make it about themselves, and the silence was easier than managing any of those three responses
