M2Moms is an executive learning event designed to teach brand marketers and ad execs how to build more business with today's mom.

According to Lauren Sweeney, M2Moms producer, "Hispanics are the fastest growing segment of the millennial moms market. They represent 50% of U.S. population growth 2000-2012, and spend over $1.3 Trillion annually." Thompson added, "Millennials, Hispanics, moms, they are the three consumer segments that hold the greatest potential for marketers and brands in today's America. Combine them all and the result is the Millennial Latina Mom, a huge opportunity for marketers in almost every category." Conill is one of the fastest growing and most highly awarded multicultural agencies in the U.S. Its clients include Aflac, Procter & Gamble, T-Mobile and Toyota Motor Sales.

"Verena's millennial Latina moms presentation is a great example why brand and ad execs from virtually every product category attend M2Moms ," Sweeney explained. "They know the research and case studies, the new techniques and how-to sessions really help them improve their marketing and sales to moms. Moms really are brand-critical decision makers for a broad range of products and services. The Fast Facts page on M2Moms website is filled with statistics showing that moms buy everything from sports drinks to prom dresses, diapers to dog food, lipstick to laptops, autos to pharmaceuticals. They buy for their homes, for their kids and they plan and pay for the family vacation. They purchase on every channel, every possible screen ... traditional and new media, they use it all."

"Every year," Sweeney continued, "M2Moms is attended by a really comprehensive and diverse list of brands including Microsoft, Johnson & Johnson, Evenflo, IKEA, Abbott Nutritionals, GM, Allstate, Heinz, Symantec, Hasbro, BBC, NBA, Procter & Gamble, Wyeth and Coca-Cola. M2Moms attendance typically sells out."
