Coverage Of The 2009 Ypulse Youth Marketing Mashup

Posted by anastasia on 06-04-2009

Ashley Qualls and Guy KawasakiThis year's Ypulse Youth Marketing Mashup has now come and gone, and while I'm completely biased of course, I feel like it's been the best event we've produced yet. Even in this gloomy economy, the 275+ youth media and marketing professionals who attended were buzzing with positive energy, happy to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones as well. One attendee even told me he met his partner at last year's Ypulse event! In addition to being told this was the strongest programming we have offered to date (big props to our spotlight keynote Don Tapscott and spectacular speaker Josh Shipp), there was just a great vibe (the flowing espresso from Fuse, retro candy from Mindspark and yummy cupcakes from Premise probably helped, too!). We will be posting speaker presentations on the Ypulse Mashup site over the next couple of weeks as we get permission from individual speakers. We'll also be posting photos on Flickr soon. The photo above is of Whateverlife founder Ashley Qualls and Guy Kawasaki. Definitely check out our live coverage of the event as well featuring the live Twitter stream at the following URLs:
