Diamond Comic Distributors has announced the dates and location for its 2017 Retailer Summit. The event will be held April 19 - 21 in Chicago.
The event will overlap with ReedPOP’s C2E2 (Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo) which will be held April 21 -23. Diamond has held the summit at C2E2 in years past, most recently in 2011 (see “Diamond Synchs Retailer Summit With C2E2”).
The Retailer Summit will be held in the South Building at McCormick Place. All Summit attendees will receive free C2E2 Professional 3-Day Badges.
“We’re enthusiastic to connect our Retailer Summit once again with the start of C2E2,” said Diamond Director of Marketing Dan Manser. “We’re motivated to make next year’s Summit a top-notch affair for everyone involved, providing retailers with informative and inspiring programming, exclusive giveaways by publishers, and special access to the C2E2 show floor.”
