YPC Summit

Mar 11th, 20092 Comments

Better late than never . . .

I was fortunate enough to go to Omaha’s Young Professionals Summit on March 5.   I was excited about this because I’m a big fan of Malcolm Gladwell. I had high expectations for his keynote and he exceeded them.  His talk was inspiritional and informative on how to make Omaha a more creative and dynamic city.  To summarize his talk takes two words: “Community Matters.”

They also announce the YP Bus Challenge. Since I ride the bus downtown to work anyway, this is a no-brainer.  Another person I ride the bus with was also at the Summit, so we quickly formed our team. Go Team 94!!

I also enjoyed some of the breakout sessions and met a few new people I hope to see again soon.

The crew at Silicon Prairie News posted up the great video they showed at the Summit, but, alas, it’s no longer there.  Bummer.

EDIT:  The video is back!  Or never went away. Thanks Silicon Prairie News!

    Mike,

    I was wondering if you were going to participate in the bus challenge! You’ve got everyone beat!

    Can you not see the video? It should be up there…

    When I looked at SPN yesterday, the video was there and then it went away. It’s back this morning, though. I was a work, though, and we have a Firewall of Doom, so maybe that’s the problem.

    As I said, the bus challenge is a no-brainer for me. I wonder what prize I will win . . .
