Alt Convention is a new type of event in the Alternative Income, Finance and Tech space. It is unlike any convention you have ever been to before. In the simplest of terms, you could consider Alt Convention to be 4 conventions in one. Kind of like a big huge convention buffet where guests pick and choose the bits and pieces they wish to consume.

The event is produced in various venues spread throughout the city of Batumi, Adjara, Georgia. Nestled between the Caucasus Mountains and the Black Sea, Batumi offers a wealth of natural and cultural experiences. It is a perfect location for a fun, rewarding, and adventurous conference.
Exhibit Arena

Due to the geographic setting of this event, we plan to produce an exhibit arena where various alternative income, finance, and investment businesses can showcase their wares to tens of thousands of interested people. Everything from alt-currency exchanges, Forex, currency mining, freelance services, network marketing, internet marketing, franchise opportunities, and more will be on display.

Tens of thousands of people, ranging from regular Joe to high net-worth individuals are expected to attend. The general admission exhibit arena will be promoted for several months throughout Eastern Europe, Turkey, and the Middle East. Businesses wanting to get a foot in the door to this emerging market, or expand an already existing presence, are sure to find an overwhelming and receptive crowd.
High Impact Speakers

We are securing contracts with several high impact and many world-famous speakers. The event should feature over 60 speakers throughout the days and venues. In addition, many industry leading, innovative organizations will lead in-depth workshops guaranteed to educate, enlighten, and equip.

The exact list of speakers, along with a complete roster of topic agendas will be presented on the site well in advance of the conference. There will be several “threads” or “paths” attendees can choose from if they want to go from beginner to advanced levels in a certain topic.
Open Venue Concept

Attendees will be given a passport upon registration. There are three levels of convention passports. They are High Roller, Business Class, and Economy Class. Thirty days prior to the event, the agenda for each venue will be published on our site. The time and place for every speech, workshop, activity, etc. will be available long before people attend. In this way attendees are free to pick and choose the various presentations and activities they feel will provide the most benefit. Attendees are free to move from venue to venue as they wish.

Lunch will be available at all four venues. Attendees may purchase Lunch Passes in advance. They may use these lunch passes to dine at any of the four venues during lunch time. This way, they are not forced to leave a particular venue, where they happen to be attending a workshop or networking with someone, to return to their “home” venue for lunch.

Every evening there will be various dinner opportunities depending upon the level of passport an attendee holds. These evening functions can include meals, cocktails, entertainment, and various levels of networking. There will be extremely exclusive, high-impact VIP events every evening for our High Rollers.

We have a mission to attract around 3,000 conference participants to the conference itself. Included in this goal is the sub-goal of having 1,000 investors in the mix. In addition to the conference, we strive to attract 20,000 general admission attendees to the general admission speeches, workshops, and exhibit arena.
