"We are excited to bring users a viable means to capitalize on MX" says Ben Kozuch, President of Future Media Concepts and the Chairperson of MXimize. "We have selected and designed the sessions based on both our experience in providing manufacturer-authorized training for the past 10 years and the specific demand for such training that exists in this arena. We trust MXimize attendees will find great value in the content, and will be able to take away real knowledge and tools they can use on future projects."

"Future Media Concepts is providing an excellent opportunity for our users," says Jon Lloyd, Director of Partner Programs , Macromedia. "MXimize provides the chance to gain advanced production tips from industry leaders, as well as the opportunity to network for three days with other web professionals."
