We have a huge respect for Chris Sherman, the founder of Engage Digital Media.  His latest show is the iPad Summit.  Founders Space has partnered with the iPad Summit, and we’ll be at the show.  Here’s the latest update…

Apple is selling more than 200,000 iPads per week (more iPads than Macs), according to a report yesterday. At the iPad Summit, June 28th in San Francisco, you gain access to the data underneath these numbers with a wealth of market research, including app and platform analytics data, consumer trends, usage, and spending habits. For only $350 (earlybird price ends in one week, on May 28th) you’ll gain keen market insight from Flurry Analytics, M2 Research, Interpret LLC, Chitika, AdMob and Aurora Feint – just to name a few.

The iPad Summit location and timing is such that there are no overnight costs if you are flying in from out of town.  The Summit takes place at the South San Francisco Conference Center, just a 5 min cab ride from the San Francisco Airport (SFO). The Summit starts at 10am and ends at 5pm. Simply take the early morning flight on June 28th and fly out that evening.
