At EconSM conference on April 26th, the day will start with a knockout superpanel, full of strong voices from some of the most distinctive companies in social media: Barak Berkowitz, CEO and chairman of Six Apart; Michael Birch, founder and CEO of Bebo; Tariq Krim, founder and CEO of Netvibes; and Owen Van Natta, COO of Facebook.
We wanted to assemble the voices of significant emerging companies and we also wanted to be sure that these voices could speak with authority and experience. Even the younger members of this panel have been around the block before. During this superpanel, we’ll explore the state of social media with key executives at leading companies: all of them young, but all of them around long enough to be maturing in interesting ways.
We’ll look into threat to traditional media from social media, how the traditional players are responding, how the two sides can work together — and how they’d better not. For some traditional ventures, social media is just the flavor of the month. Others are taking the threat more seriously. What’s the best way to get to the new generation of media with your brand from the previous generation untarnished? And what’s the best way to make your startup one of the winners? The panel will be moderated by Rafat Ali, editor of paidContent.org and mocoNews.net.
Space is filling fast so please register soon. We look forward to seeing you there.
