Good news everyone! Our first annual super-duper event is finally here!
Update is an annual micro-conference hosted by e-Business Club
The goal of the conference is to update students at Sauder on the current state of the web, social media, online marketing and personal branding. And we’ve got some cool speakers lined up and eager to share some insights on the current happenings in the e-Business sphere.
This event is our first attempt to show you what our club is all about and prepare you for what’s coming next. So you must be there!
New features (a.k.a. agenda)
The format we’ve selected — micro-conference — is perfect for your busy schedule. The whole event is only 2 hours long, but almost overloaded with content.
This year, speakers are:
- Brian Wong, super-star entrepreneur, ex-Sauderite, who’s behind followformation and kiip.me.
- Theodora Lamb, online community manager and works with MEC’s The Big Wild, the BC Children’s Hospital Foundation and the Asia Pacific Foundation
- Mike Abasov, marketing ambassador at HootSuite, independent brand consultant, as well as current Sauder student.
Besides our guests, some snacks and drink also promised to show up.

Hey eBusiness Team,
I was planing on attending the event and I just realized that my COMM 439 team andf I will be meeting a Deloitte Senior Consultant at 5 pm in downtown to get some information about the COMM 439 project. I wish you success!!

Sorry to hear that, Rick.
But don’t worry, we’ll have the whole thing taped, pictured, reviewed, and uploaded to the website. It’s not going to be the same experience, but, hopefully, it will be something worth checking out.
Also, if you are on Twitter, you can search for #eBizUpdate to get the feel of what will be happening at the event.
Good luck on your project!
