VanTaGeat Thomson reuters elite, we are focused on ensuring that our clients have a cohesive VanTaGe conference. You can trust you are experiencing the highest quality event in the industry. as part of this unity, each year we showcase new artwork designed exclusively for the conference.
This year’s design was created for us by Traci daberko, a graphic designer and illustrator from Seattle, Washington. Traci began her graphic design career through some of Seattle’s top design agencies. as her career developed, she found a passion in illustrating her own design concepts. in 2003, Traci decided to go solo with her own graphic design and illustration business, now called dBrkO.
Through Traci’s compelling design and artwork, she has captured the aspiration of VanTaGe conferences in helping you connect, learn, and experience.

WOrld BicYcle relieFThis year, Thomson reuters is proud to be supporting World Bicycle relief, a global non-profit organization mobilizing people through the Power of Bicycles.
in rural and emerging regions of the world, people struggle to meet their basic needs. Vast distances and limited transportation options often prevent access to schools, clinics and markets. World Bicycle relief has designed The Buffalo, a robust bicycle engineered specifically for rural terrain and heavy load requirements. To date, World Bicycle relief has distributed more than 340,000 specially designed Buffalo Bicycles to students, healthcare workers and entrepreneurs, and has trained more than 1,600 field mechanics across africa, South america and Southeast asia.
Visit the World Bicycle relief booth, located near registration, to see The Buffalo Bicycle and learn more about the Power of Bicycles. You can also enter our fundraising raffle for your chance to win a $200 gift card.
For just $148*, a Buffalo Bicycle can provide a student with life-changing access to education and opportunity. Together we can make a difference.* Thomson reuters will match all funds raised towards this initiative. With every $74 donation,
together, we will be able to buy a Buffalo Bicycle.
