Technology and Context Help Online Investor Relations Dialogue Flourish

NEW YORK, April 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Following last month's cautionary discussion of "IR engagement" and social media, we would like to showcase positive examples of engagement. Two keys to these engagement "success stories" are that the technology is very social, and the context sets appropriate expectations for dialogue.

On April 3, we held our 37^th event at RetailInvestorConferences.com. These events are virtual investor presentations– CEOs and executives webcasting to hundreds of current and potential investors. These conferences are not monologue--they are open dialogues. In fact, presenting companies tell us again and again that the two-way engagement is their favorite aspect of the events.
