Dallas, Texas September 19-20, 2006 -- For the eleventh consecutive year, Jacobs Media will be hosting The Summit – the annual gathering of the radio industry dedicated to the exploration of key issues facing our business. "We are excited to once again align with the Radio & Records convention to put on this year’s showcase event, Summit 11," Jacobs Media President Fred Jacobs announced. "This has been an excellent partnership over the years, as we’ve been able to combine forces with R&R to create a significant industry event. And in 2006, the challenge to produce the most compelling sessions is even higher because of the convergence of Summit 11, the Radio & Records Convention, and the NAB Convention all in one building."

Radio & Records Publisher/CEO Erica Farber comments, "We are pleased to once again welcome the Jacobs Media Summit to the R&R Convention. The Jacobs Summit is a great addition to our agenda. Fred, Paul and the entire Jacobs Media staff devote a lot of time and energy into offering educational and high quality sessions specifically designed for the Rock, Classic Rock, and Alternative formats."

The mission of the Summit is to bring the radio community together to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the business. "We believe that broadcasters are hungry to be exposed to the best thinkers, inside and outside of radio," remarks Jacobs. Past Summit presenters have included Harry Shearer, Howard Dean’s Internet strategist Zephyr Teachout, Little Steven Van Zandt, Tom Calderone, and others. "While our agenda is still coming together, attendees can be assured we will once again provide them with a compelling event where they can bring actionable ideas back to their stations," says Jacobs. "If there’s one convention for everyone from radio to attend, it’s this one."

Summit 11 will be held in Dallas on Tuesday, September 19th and Wednesday, September 20th. Tuesday sessions will be between 1pm and 5pm and Wednesday sessions from 10:15am-12:30pm. The Radio & Records Convention and the NAB convention run from Wednesday through Friday, September 20th through 22nd.
