Comspark About Us
Our Company
Headquartered in Cincinnati, OH ComSpark and its initiatives provide opportunities to experience community, share innovative ideas and celebrate leaders in technology. It is a platform where senior level executives who embrace the idea of expanding the global digital footprint and who lead with innovation, passion and most importantly technology are brought together.
Annual events we host to provide these connective opportunities include: ComSpark Summit, Cybersecurity Summit, Global CDO and Data Leaders’ Summit, Women in Technology Leadership Summit, technology and leadership awards banquets, and more.
Our History
ComSpark, a media property of LeadTribune Media, was founded in 2010 during one of the worst economic climates we have ever seen. At a time when people were saying that print media was dead, the first LeadTribune Media print magazine was published. We have since expanded from a single magazine to a variety of media properties, and we are still growing, 10 years later, in a time where business has been forced to shift to virtual platforms.
Our additional media properties include Venue Magazine, Cincinnati's lifestyle and event guide, and CDO Magazine, an online digest designed to give a voice to global leaders in data and analytics that grew out of MIT's annual CDO and Information Quality Symposium (MIT CDOIQ).
Our Vision
To be a catalyst for sharing innovative ideas, technology trends and networking. ComSpark’s passion is to connect others and help build relationships among our business partners.
