Michael FranziniThis is a quick post for any fence-sitters or Ypulsers waiting until the last minute to register for our big event in June (The Ypulse Youth Marketing Mashup). For Ypulsers who just can’t make it, feel free to skip this and know we’ll be live blogging, tweeting and attempting to capture the event in any other virtual way we can.

Network with folks from some of the biggest brands in youth marketing: Nike, Disney, The N, Red Bull, Levis, Best Buy, mtvU, ABC Family, Nokia, MySpace Records, LG and many more!

Fresh research from C&R Research, SurveyU and Gary Rudman’s latest G Trend Report on tweens, teens and college students.

Case studies, case studies and more case studies. From back-to-back case studies at the Campus Case Study Slam (mtvU, ABC Family, Levis and more) to urban case studies (promoting P&G’s Tag body spray, WuChess and the Hip Hop Chess Federation) to pro-social case studies (Best Buy and Ashoka Youth Venture, Premise and The Partnership for a Drug-Free America) to tween case studies (Disney’s user generated U Rock The Summer effort).

Mind-blowing keynotes. Don Tapscott! Greg Clayman (MTV)! Josh Shipp (HeyJosh)! Donna Fenn (Inc.)! Daryl Butler (Nike)!

Two youth panels. Watch youth rate big brand campaigns live onstage and get feedback on your own. Plus, our annual Totally Wired Youth Entrepreneur panel moderated by Guy Kawasaki! Also check out our Youth Media Showcase where we give Bay Area youth organizations free exhibit space to share their work. This year we’ve confirmed Youth Radio, Horizons and Girls For A Change.

User generated lunch. Wanted to speak but weren’t able to get on this year’s agenda — here’s your chance. Attendees can submit topics and lead lunchtime roundtable discussions. If you’re in the under 13 space, you can also attend Sunday’s Tweens Online Unconference where you set the agenda!

Fun! Don’t miss our opening night reception with youth DJs from Horizons DJ Project and an exclusive screening of the sexy Sundance hit DARE followed by a Q&A with the writer and director.

Price. We are the most affordable youth marketing event in the marketplace with non-profit rates, group rates and an additional 10 percent off if you use any of our social media codes (LI, FB or TWEET). If you work for an ad agency, get three clients to register (or sponsor them) and get in for free (email Carolyn Carson for info). You will definitely get your money’s worth!

Don’t wait until the last minuteregister today and secure your seat(s). I look forward to celebrating Ypulse’s 5th anniversary with you in June!

This event would not be happening without our incredibly generous sponsors like anchor sponsor Fuse, research sponsor C&R’s TeensEyes division, Totally Wired Teacher award sponsor Dell, sponsors Premise, SurveyU, Privo, myYearbook and Pangea, exhibitors Listen2Youth, Vergo Marketing, Zest Books, mindspark, …Ology, yoursphere and Monitor Premiums.
