Yellow Pages TODAY ! has announced a programme to invite leaders of Yellow Pages and search companies in the developing countries to attend the annual conference free of admission charge.

Co-organiser, Peter Buxton stated: “It is clear that the Yellow Pages TODAY ! events have always provided the delegates with the opportunity for a significant exchange of industry know-how through detailed presentations, through networking sessions and through exhibitors.

Introducing important changes to the YTP conference targeting, to those who serve the SME market with response-related products & services. Many YP providers now describe their business vision as a generator of leads and response to the SME. Others emphasise Local Search.  In each of these sectors there are new potential partners and competitors. They all serve the SME market with response-related products and services.
