That's a Wrap: Karmak Conference & Expo 2023!

Events · 1 min read · By Jerry Van Galder

400+ attendees, 50+ vendors, and a deepening partnership around AI-powered e-commerce.

Last week, we had the privilege of attending one of the most dynamic industry events — the 2023 Karmak Conference & Expo. With over 400 enthusiastic attendees, 6 top-tier OEMs, and 50+ innovative vendors, it was a Karmak gathering for the books.

The iconic St. Louis Union Station hotel served as the perfect backdrop for learning, networking, and a bit of fun. Between connecting with peers, thought leaders, and vendors, the 60+ sessions delivered a treasure trove of fresh insights and strategies to serve our community and clients better.

One highlight was Karmak CEO Jim Allen sharing the company's core values — including the proud announcement that Karmak is becoming a wholly employee-owned entity. It was also heartening to hear Karmak's steadfast focus on cybersecurity, a priority we share at Buzznerd.

And the fun didn't wane after hours — the Armory venue came alive with a live 80's cover band one night and dueling pianists the next. Looking ahead, we're buzzing to deepen our partnership with Karmak, especially as we delve further into AI-powered e-commerce. Until next time, keep trucking and stay connected!
