Last week, Brian Solis was in town to talk to the Central Ohio chapter of the Public Relations Society of America about ”the new landscape of PR and the emerging new roles and responsibilities which we must embrace in order to successfully and genuinely evolve and ensure our place in the future communications economy.”
While I planned to attend the lunch, I became too busy at work to attend, so I gave my ticket away to the SOLD OUT event. But luckily, I was invited to attend a small dinner with Brian the night before at Martini. I’m certainly glad I went, and just by hearing him talk, I understand why he’s such the rockstar in the PR and Social Media world.
Joining me at the dinner was Kelli Knowinsky (the person who invited Brian to come to Columbus), Kevin Pfefferle, Nick Seguin, Jim Canterucci, Angela Siefer and Jamie Timm. I have gotten to know these folks from twitter and it’s easy to see why Brian came to the conclusion that “Columbus is indeed a developing social media and new tech hub and is ripe for the next wave of events that spotlight the local social economy.”
Here are some photos from my dinner.
