"We're in the middle of a huge transition in this industry, and the shift starts with engagement," said John Gorman, chairman at Nightingale Partners and scheduled speaker at Rev Up. "First you need to be able to find these folks, reach them, and engage them. Then you've got to get them to change -- that's what Rev Up is all about and why people come to this event."
