Voices That Matter was a professional conference/convention series geared towards creative, business and IT practitioners, held between 2007 and 2011. The conferences put an emphasis on learning from and networking with leaders within the industry's community. The conference format consisted of conversations rather than the more traditional keynote speeches.

Conference speakers included Jakob Nielsen, Joshua Bloch, Billy Hoffman and Steve Krug.
