Brian McAndrews to kick off TechFlash speaker series |
Register here for our next TechFlash Live networking event, March 23, featuring an expert panel discussing the future of online advertising.
Brian McAndrews
We're excited to announce that former aQuantive Chief Executive and outgoing Microsoft advertising executive Brian McAndrews will be the featured speaker at the TechFlash launch event January 22 in downtown Seattle. Named 2008 Executive of the Year by AdvertisingAge, McAndrews is a pioneer in the online advertising arena. He's best known for selling Seattle-based aQuantive to Microsoft for $6 billion, the largest acquisition in the software giant's history.
Obviously, we're thrilled to have Brian at our launch event, kicking off what we hope will be a truly unique speaker series for the Seattle tech community. We'll have a lot to chat about given the state of the online advertising industry. A lot of people also are wondering what the former ABC executive will do next now that he is stepping down from Microsoft.
A big thanks to our sponsors for helping to make this happen: SolutionsIQ, University of Washington's Technology Management MBA program and the Washington Technology Industry Association.
Tickets are going fast and we expect the event to sell out. So make sure to sign up.
