Actionable Take aways

Speakers who are in the trenches

We love speakers who really know their stuff

Unparalleled onsite experience

An invested event producer

Hero Conf was built because the PPC community was lacking a relevant learning opportunity. And if we aren’t continually learning, we’re falling behind. We’ve been focusing on our attendees and their long-term success, regardless of industry or role.

Unique location

An unforgettable experience

Both in San Diego and Brighton, Hero Conf takes place right by the sea. We love a city that’s a little bit different and you will certainly get that in both our conference locations – whether you choose the UK or US, or why not both!
