Creative Tampa Bay presents inaugural Florida Boomer Lifestyle Conference

America’s 78 million baby boomers - people born between 1946 and 1964 - constitute our largest, most affluent, and best educated consumer segment. They are in their peak earning years and spend $2.3 trillion annually on consumer goods and services, a whopping $400 billion more than any demographic group, according to the 2006 Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Expenditure Study. Surprisingly, they are underserved by many marketers, who covet the 18-49 year olds, and the mature marketers, whose approaches are better suited for boomers’ parents.

The inaugural Florida Boomer Lifestyle Conference, scheduled for May 12 at the Tampa Convention Center, is designed to help businesses understand the global and national trends shaping the boomer economy and the opportunities to be found within it. Trends to be explored include care giving, wellness, personal and career reinvention, social entrepreneurship, and financing longevity. Companies that are achieving success in marketing to boomers, such as Tampa’s Ott Lite , will share best practices. The conference will also explore how Florida’s business communities can gain competitive advantage by developing a boomer strategy.

I'm told that Arte will be back in 2010.
Ron Richards Comment by Ron Richards on May 27, 2009 at 12:41pm
Does anybody know what became of the Arte Festival? I thought that it was on an every-other-year cycle, but hear nothing about 2009. Victim of the economy, or what?

If Tampa Bay Business was an NFL football team - all the economic development coaches would have been fired five years ago.
Who disagrees and why?
We are near the bottom of a sinking economy - why? and what can we do to turn this around ... call Camelot Florida 813-251-4669 with your ideas, action items, suggestions....
