Fred Wilson, John Borthwick - Video Highlights From Social Media Boot Camp

Last week in New York, we held a Social Media Boot Camp for brands and ad agencies. The event featured thoughts on the social media space from a long list of industry luminaries.

We were lucky enough to get commentary from two of the investors behind Twitter, Fred Wilson and John Borthwick. Fred, a partner at Union Square Ventures, was an early investor in Twitter, while John was an investor in Summize, a search startup acquired by Twitter.

Rather than posting the entire discussion, we’ve selected a few key videos parts of the panel.
