RunSignup, the leading technology provider for endurance events in the US, has opened Early Bird Registration for their upcoming Summer Symposium to be held in Philadelphia, PA July 26-27, 2022. The RunSignup Symposium brings specialized education to race directors, timers, and fundraising events with in-depth reviews of industry trends, detailed technology training, and networking opportunities.

The RunSignup Symposium offers intersecting educational tracks, allowing every event director and timer to curate their individual schedule. Session topics will include marketing trends, business strategies, RaceDay technology, and methods to raise more revenue year-round.

Education at the RunSignup Symposium goes beyond traditional classroom learning, with opportunities for hands-on training throughout. The event includes a fun 5K run/walk with a live demonstration of the technology, tools, and best practices required to create better endurance events, as well as an animated Demo Room for one-on-one assistance with all the RunSignup products. Additionally, the Symposium emphasizes the value of networking and peer collaboration, with open spaces and casual environments for every evening social event and conference meal.

RunSignup Founder and CEO Bob Bickel said, “Over the last eight years, we have come to see our annual Summer Symposiums as an opportunity to provide actionable and practical education to our customers and the endurance industry. But it is also a chance for us to learn from our customers and ensure that our technology is always moving forward to meet the needs of the industry. We are excited to get back together and exchange ideas!”

Early Bird registration for the Symposium is now open. Due to a smaller venue than previous years, registration is capped, and the event is expected to sell out. For more information or to sign up today, visit: https://www.runsignup.com/symposium.
