XBIZ is pleased to announce May 15-18 as the official dates set for XBIZ Summit 2012, taking place at the posh beachfront playground of the Shelborne Beach Hotel in South Beach, Miami, where global decision-makers will descend for the ultimate business retreat and have the option to attend the closely situated eXXXotica Miami 2012, which has exclusively partnered with XBIZ.

“XBIZ Summit 2012 will be a refined melding of the most popular and productive components of past XBIZ summer events,” XBIZ Events Director Moe Helmy said. “Poolside networking and deal-making under the warm sun in a tropical, relaxed setting add a unique edge to the customary slate of wildly successful seminars, panels and exclusive events that XBIZ events worldwide are known for.”

XBIZ Summit 2012 attendees can look forward to an upgraded suite of workshops, technology clinics and enhanced networking sessions. With direct access to the beach and reserved seating, attendees can even conduct business meetings on the sandy Miami Beach shore or within luxurious private poolside cabanas.

“As the home to a number of industry heavyweights, Miami is the perfect city to host XBIZ Summit 2012,” XBIZ’s Kristen Kaye said. “With a fresh new lineup of world-class seminars, panel discussions and innumerable networking opportunities, XBIZ Summit will offer the perfect setting to engage with local, national and international leaders.”

eXXXotica Miami Beach 2012 takes place on May 18-20 just blocks away from the Shelborne Hotel at the Miami Beach Convention Center.

A special group rate of $159 per night at the Shelborne Hotel has been allocated for XBIZ Summit 2012 attendees.
