| Company Culture Design for Startups |
| Location:Santa Monica |
| Company Culture Design for Startups. Coloft Academy. The phrase “company culture” is getting thrown around a lot these days, usually followed by words like “Google,” “Zappos,” “ping-pong table,” “organic employee cafeteria” and “20% time.” But what if culture isn’t REALLY about “perks," but is actually something much more powerful — something that can be designed like an architect would design a building or a landscaper would craft a beautiful backyard? This session will show you why culture is one of the most powerful competitive advantages a startup or small business can leverage, and why the time to start thinking about culture is RIGHT NOW (though yesterday would be even better).

| How to Monetize Web Content |
| Location:Beverly Hills |
| How to Monetize Web Content. AMPLIFY ROUNDTABLES. The reality is that 90 percent of advertising revenues are concentrated in the top 50 publishers. And, if you’re Arianna Huffington, Harvey Levin, Henry Blodget or Perez Hilton, you’re probably doing okay. But if you’re not converting millions of eyeballs into millions of dollars in ad revenue, the traditional ad-supported free content model simply no longer works. Panel includes: Amos Pizzey, Founder, Talenthouse; Jeff Tinsley, CEO, MyLife.com; David Subar, Chief Technology Officer, Break Media; Brock Pierce, Co-Founder & Executive Chairman,Playsino; Moderator: Marty Shindler, CEO at The ShindlerPerspective, Inc.
