I have just returned from speaking at the OMMA Global conference with friends & industry luminaries John Battelle, Jason Calacanis, and Paul Kedrosky which was all about the intersection of advertising with technology.  If you missed the talk, Max Kalehoff, our panel moderator (and VP of Marketing @ Clickable) penned a nice piece in MediaPost.

I haven’t been out speaking much (nor updating this blog as often) as things have been extremely hectic back in the NYC office and with the birth of my son (now almost 5 months old!).  I was supposed to be speaking at the Web 2.0 Expo in SF this coming week but had a client conflict come up and had to back out at the last possible second which I absolutely hate doing because it hinders the flow of the conference.  Apologies again to both the conference organizers and all who I was supposed to meet with.

Currently, the following speaking engagements are on my schedule for April 2009:

• Bootstrapper Summit, billed as “the most intimate venture capital conference.”  I’ll be talking on Wednesday, April 1 at 9:30AM on a panel with some friends about investing and executing in digital media.   If you would like to attend, I have 1 FREE pass to give away.  Please contact me thru this form and the first who reaches out will get the pass.
• NYC Entrepreneurship Week.  I’ll be speaking on April 21 at 5:00PM on an evening panel about media.   Some of the topics include emerging trends in media and the current and future media landscape.

Looking forward to speaking at these events.
