Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco will be held from March 31st - April 3rd, 2009 at Moscone West in San Francisco. The event is a combination of a conference and a trade show that includes a diverse set of participants and speakers as well as more than a few new product and company launches. The conference includes a mixture of speakers with technical, design, business and strategy backgrounds. I have attended Web 2.0 Expo for the past several years and can recommend it highly for both the quality of the sessions and the participants.

Web 2.0 Expo is a co-production of O’Reilly Media and TechWeb and serves as a companion to the annual Web 2.0 Summit. A variety of pricing tiers are available, which provide different access to portions of the event including sessions, keynotes, workshops and the expo floor. Early registration for Web 2.0 Expo is available until February 26, 2009.

The Launch Pad event showcasing startups selected by a panel of venture capitalists will be held on April 2nd. Applications for the Launch Pad event are due by February 17, 2009.

The event is very large and the Web 2.0 Expo blog and a Web 2.0 Expo Twitter feed are worth following for a preview of what Web 2.0 Expo will be like.
