Honor Roll From Social Media Business School

Last Thursday this leg of the Social Media Business School conference tour concluded. The tour brought myself and some of the SM team to San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, and London. In each locale we shared our panelists and our own discoveries about succeeding as advertisers and developers within social networking sites. It was consistently rated as a high value event by attendees.

First a thank you to the sponsors:

While we brought our own thoughts and experiences to the table, the events couldn’t have succeeded without a list of highly qualified panelists coming from the development, advertising, and venture capital worlds. I just wanted to take a moment to share the list with everyone.
