Social Media – Will You Fail, Survive, or Thrive? Our panelists will discuss how to leverage social media tools and trends to gain a competitive advantage. We’re all familiar with Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, but we may not be as familiar with TweetDeck, Foursquare, Google Buzz. What else is out there that you could be using to your advantage? What are you missing out on by not using these? How can entrepreneurs and businesses ensure they are using social media as effectively possible? Renu Kulkarni, Executive Director for FutureMedia, will be one of the featured panelists.
