We've all been there: there's an exciting conference coming up, tickets are already on sale (and selling fast), but your boss is reluctant to give you the green light.

This October, we’re hosting REFRAME 2025 — our video innovation conference. Last year’s event featured a range of star speakers, including Ted AI Show host Bilawal Sidhu, former Netflix CMO Bozoma Saint John, and the legendary Martha Stewart. This year’s event promises to be just as impressive.

Do you want to attend REFRAME 2025, but you’re not sure whether you can convince your boss? Here's how you can address the most common concerns and demonstrate to your boss why you need to be in New York for this year’s event.

Will the conference provide enough value to justify the cost?

The cost of your ticket is a small investment that could drive significant results for you, your team, and your organization. 

Learn from entrepreneurs and leaders who have overcome the same challenges you're facing, and use that knowledge to revamp your video strategy.  

The conference also offers a rare opportunity to connect with hundreds of industry peers in person — contacts that could prove valuable in the future. 

Plus, tickets are only $175, and they include breakfast, lunch, a reception, merch, activations, and, of course, the fantastic content. That’s all for less than most conferences. 

We have deadlines coming up. We need you in the office. 

We understand that you have a busy schedule, and that's why REFRAME is a full-day event packed with highly relevant sessions. 

The insights and tools you gain could be just what your team needs to become more efficient and deliver better results more quickly. A single day out of the office could save hours of work on future video projects. 

I'm not sure how this conference directly benefits your role or the team.

REFRAME is for everyone involved with or interested in video. Marketers, internal communications professionals, and creative professionals can all benefit from staying up-to-date with the latest innovations in video.

Check the list below for the benefits specific to your role, or provide your boss with materials from last year's event to help them understand the value.

Attending REFRAME 2025 will ensure you're at the forefront of video innovation. Find out how to integrate AI into your video workflows and discover new ways to create content that moves the needle.

Couldn't you watch the sessions online instead of attending in person?

Watching the sessions online after the event is an excellent option if you're not able to attend in person. However, you'll miss out on the breakout sessions, Q&As, and networking opportunities that make REFRAME 2025 so valuable.

We'll be welcoming some big industry names to the event. Attending REFRAME 2025 in person could help raise awareness of your brand or business.
