Startup Week CHA 2016

Every meeting and event creates great content — speeches, interviews, testimonies, etc. But these valuable assets do little for your business if they only exist within the walls of a conference center, only to be forgotten at a later time. Event amplification ignites social media conversations before, during, and after events to provide maximum brand exposure. Our company does this through social media strategies, on-site brand journalism, creative digital treatments, graphic design, photo, video, and influencer engagement.

At our Startup Week panel we will teach you how to develop your own personal news team as you broadcast the amazing story of your conference over the most popular social media channels.

You’re putting a lot of work into your events and it makes good business sense to shine a light on it with tested resources, specialized technology, and unique skills that will maximize your success. Amplifying your event creates a lasting impact that will keep people coming back and attract new attendees for years to come.

Panel discussion from 5 women owned startups who either left their 9-5 to pursue their passion or have made the transition from freelancing to owning a business. The panel will conclude with questions from the audience who are young women seeking advice on how to make the transition, support their freelance careers, or seeking business mentors.

You have a brilliant idea, you have a team to back you up, and your business is ready to roll. But, wait. Have you thought about protecting your intellectual property, a proper workspace for your business, rules of contracting or employing needed help, etc.? Our team will talk about the most important things for starting your business. Lunch is on us!

Avoid common pitfalls by getting every last penny out your resources by listening to a panel of web marketing experts, startups and established companies will answer your questions about the evolving world of the web.
