ONLINE CONFERENCE MODEL PROVEN – MORE TO COME IN 2013
AGORACOM Founder, George Tsiolis, stated, “The metrics clearly demonstrate the pent-up demand of uranium investors from around the world to participate in an online conference featuring quality companies and industry experts. Full credit must go to Jim Paterson, CEO of Kivalliq Energy, who first approached me with his vision in late 2012. We agreed that a borderless, online conference was the logical next step if the uranium industry was going to start reaching out to new, bigger audiences. Investors clearly responded, proving they are willing to participate when great information is delivered via convenient access, as opposed to having to travel, spend money and take valuable time away from their lives.”
Tsiolis added, “Though I am not surprised, the exceptional results will serve as the basis for additional online conferences in 2013 for the entire small-cap industry.”
