We look forward to seeing many of you next week at our annual Crane's Money Fund Symposium in Pittsburgh. We're planning for a record turnout (estimating 450 and possibly approaching 500) for our 2012 Symposium, which will be held June 20-22, 2012, at The Westin Convention Center in Pittsburgh. (Crane Data's big annual money fund event attracted 395 speakers, sponsors, and attendees in Philadelphia last year.) For the full agenda and for more information, visit www.moneyfundsymposium.com. Registrations are still available though hotel reservations have gotten difficult (due to record demand and due to the NHL Draft being in Pittsburgh next weekend). Crane's Money Fund Symposium offers money market portfolio managers, investors, issuers, and service providers a concentrated and affordable educational experience, as well as an excellent and informal networking venue. Registration for Crane's Money Fund Symposium 2012 is still $750; exhibit space is $3,000; and sponsorship opportunities are $4.5K, $6K, $7.5K, and $10K. Our mission is to deliver a better and less expensive conference alternative to money market fund professionals and investors, and we hope to see you in Pittsburgh this summer! Crane Data is also assisting German conference company IQPC with a new European Money Fund Summit, which is tentatively scheduled for November 19-20, 2012, in Frankfurt, Germany. Finally, mark your calendars for next year's Money Fund University, which is tentatively scheduled for Jan. 23-24, 2013, in New York City, and for next year's Money Fund Symposium, which will be in Baltimore, June 19-21, 2013. (Watch for coverage from the Symposium late next week.)
