Announcing the Delegations at the 15th Annual Allied Media Conference
Allied Media Conference

We’re excited to announce the nine official AMC 2013 Delegations! Delegations are groups who collectively fundraise for, travel to, and reflect on the Allied Media Conference together. Organizing a delegation is a way to make your AMC experience more awesome, while also helping to make the AMC more accessible to your community. Look for the participants from these delegations as they volunteer, lead sessions, document, and generally rep their communities throughout the AMC weekend. Post-AMC season we will share their reflections on our blog.
