Effervescent Serendipity @140Conf This Week

We are pleased to announce this week's upcoming Event Correspondent opportunity.

Since earlier this summer, I have had the opportunity to cover some industry leading media events, broadcasting live the key takeaways as an Event Correspondent. Some of the live media coverage we have provided represents industry leading publications, companies, leadership panels, event promoters and published authors within the world of social media. As we continue to launch this service and transform each event into content, we continue to seek leaders who want to secure their thought leadership with their event investment through live Event Correspondent services. 

The latest event correspondent opportunity will cover BrandsConf this week in New York City. 

It is an honor to cover the upcoming #140Conf BrandsConference in New York City for a number of reasons. Many thoughts rush through my mind when I look forward to this conference. Pleasing thoughts like:

- Another visit to NYC

- The companies and the individuals behind the leading brands who will be represented

- The 2nd time chance to attend a #140Conf

- The networking opportunities and

- The growth and development of the live event coverage service as an Event Correspondent.

But, I must admit, the number one reason that I'm ecstatic about the opportunity to cover the #140Conf Brands Conference is: Jeff Pulver.

Founder of Vonage and the worldwide #140Conf creator and host, Jeff leads with his heart, giving magnitude to the voice of those making a positive impact and changing the world as we know it. Jeff's vision for the #140Conf highlights words like "Serendipity" and "Power of Now" as he invites speakers to present a ten minute talk that is broadcasted online through U-Stream and Twitter. Conference locations span from Tel Aviv to small town Hutchinson, Kansas. Audience members onsite, or online, gain insight from a variety of topics that educate and inspire people to grow, act and change.    

Sporting hues of purple and introducing each new presenter with a warm hug instead of the typical clammy handshake, Jeff is truly a game changer in the world of media. It is unimaginable the obstacles he has faced in his career with the launch of Vonage, now a publicly traded company that offers telephone service via broadband, or Voice Over the IP (VoIP). It is ironic how Jeff continues to give exposure to the ideas and early stages of emerging businesses to the world at large, giving voice to the underdogs. His conferences happen frequently, in real time, while the telecom Goliaths wait for the dial tone. 

Jeff lives with impact and meaning. He is inspiring, fascinating, honest and quirky and you cannot help but just adore him! He changes the world with each new person he meets.

Desparate for connection and inspiration, I joyfully and humbly attended and I was awestruck at the magic that moved from the stage of each presenter, captivating and motivating each person while growing the hearts and minds and connecting humanity via a #hashtag. It is no suprise to me that Jeff is honing in on the Humanization of Brands as the title of this week's conferene in New York. And, I am honored not only to attend just to hear the message, but to help in covering the event live via Twitter as an Event Correspondent. 

The speakers slated for this week's event includes people who represent brands like Sesame Street and Oprah as well as "epic change agents" like mom bloggers and Tanzanian grade school founder, Mama Lucy. No doubt that a fresh effervescent spirit will rule the room with a mix of messages by social media leaders representing brands like Coca-cola and Pepsi. And, I am bubbling with anticipation as the hugs abound and the human hearts that beat behind some of the world's most well known brands congregate. Please stay tuned as I share the upcoming experience, live, in-person via @BrandsConf and @140Conf, hashtag #140Conf. I'll be in the front row, taking photos from my iPhone, typing feverishly from my iPad and smiling while wearing Pulver-purple.
