IMN moves ABS West to Miami

Starting in 2007, Information Management Network‘s yearly ABS conferences will no longer be known as the ABS West or East conferences. Starting this spring, instead of the usual ABS West Conference typically held in Phoenix, IMN will stage the Spring ABS 2007 in South Beach at The Loews Miami Beach Hotel from April 29 to May 2.  The IMN will also hold a similarly named gathering in the fall.  “There have been quite a few requests for South Beach, Fla. as a venue,” said event coordinator Jade Friedensohn. She also said the Miami would be an ideal place for networking opportunities and enjoying the nightlife. “The Loews Miami has the facilities to accommodate our programming needs where a critical mass of investors and issuers could potentially network and learn about the market,” she said.
