I’m Speaking @ The 2006 Podcast and Portable Media Expo

by shwen No Comments »

In the inaugural episode of ETech@Work, I interviewed Tim Bourquin–host of the Podcast Brothers and CEO and Founder of TNC New Media–about the business-side of podcasting. Well, I’m pleased to announce that Tim recently invited me to join a panel session at his Podcast and Portable Media Expo (Ontario, CA) on SEP 29th-30th, 2006. I will also be joined on the panel by my friend, Kathleen Gilroy, CEO of the Otter Group (which I also sit on the advisory board for).

Here’s a synopsis of the session:

Beyond the Playlist: Driving Innovative Thinking Through Podcasting
Track 2: Podcasting as a Business
Instructors: Shwen Gwee, Kathleen Gilroy
Room: Ballroom A
Description: Developing innovative ideas for new products or services within an organization is a complex task when your team is already inundated with information and day-to-day operations. Podcasting–with it’s ease of distribution and updates, portability, “time-shifting” capabilities, and copious amounts of content–can ease the burden of the daily grind and directly or indirectly facilitate creative thinking and drive innovation. In this session, you’ll hear from experts in e-learning and corporate training who will discuss using new media to spur innovation and “thinking out of the box” in any organization.


I’m very excited to be part of the expo this year (I also attended lthe first one last year) and look forward to the opportunity to meeting many of you there. Don’t forget to book accomodations–there are limited numbers of “conference rate” rooms.

Check out all the new tracks they have this year!
