THE MISSION OF THE 7th Annual Jewish Food Media Conference is to bring together our community of jewish food professionals in a positive atmosphere that encourages personal and business growth. Our programming is designed to enhance our understanding of social media, photography, branding, marketing, networking, and ethics. Expect to leave that room with new friends, a serious amount of inspiration from our speakers, and a plan of action!
