NewComm Forum 2010 Overview

New communications technologies and social media are being incorporated into every aspect of business – from communications to customer service and CRM, to HR recruitment, employee communications, corporate training, product R&D, sales, and more.

NewComm Forum is the premier conference for unlocking the power of social media and new communications tools and technologies to make your organization more competitive, insightful, innovative, efficient, productive and ultimately more profitable.

The 140 Twitter Conference organized by the Parnassus Group kicked off in Los Angeles at the Skirball Center this week to accolades and exhilaration.

Business, marketing, service, and communications professionals joined celebrities, Twitter developers, investors and entrepreneurs to share insights, experiences, and their vision for the future of collaboration, community, and commerce.

Indeed, we learned that micro engagement represents the potential for macro impact.

The energy was contagious and the lessons and education shared and absorbed was priceless.

Jeff Pulver’s 140 Character Conference (#140conf) will be taking place at New World Stages in New York City on June 16/17.

While the original scope of the event was to explore “the effects of twitter on: Celebrity, “The Media”, Advertising and (maybe) Politics”, the scope of the event has expanded and we will be covering these topics and a lot more. #140conf will be taking a look at twitter as a platform and will be taking a look at some of the industries which have been disrupted by the advent of twitter.

The schedule reflects the great variety of the subject areas we will be exploring and discussing at #140conf. The speakers represent a “cast of characters” whose presence will help define this event. I’m joining Tony Hsieh of Zappos on stage.

You can save $195 by using code “SOLIS” before midnight Tuesday. Register here.
