Event Planning by Mark Breen (Cuckoo Events) for BICS 2013Mark Breen
Slides from a presentation I gave to BICS (Board of Irish College Societies) recently on Event Planning. They've been altered slightly, obviously, with more text in this version as YOU don't have me there in front of you to go through it all.
Cuckoo and I - IT Tallaght Advertising & Marketing - 28/04/14Mark Breen
I was asked to speak to a first year Advertising & Marketing class in IT Tallaght. They were interested in Cuckoo, how I got to where I am and my take on marketing and social media. I really enjoyed this one.
I love advertising and my own background is in marketing so it was fun speaking on something related to events but not solely events-specific.
This is a little slide show I did to showcase some of the stuff Cuckoo has been involved in in its first year. Not much text. Mainly pictures and videos.

The Contemporary Entrepreneurship Scene of GreeceDemetrios Pogkas
Konrad Adenauer Stiftung Athen organised in mid-July a 4-day seminar for 20 Greek students on the Social Market Economy. On Saturday, July 11th I delivered a presentation on "The Greek contemporary entrepreneurial scene" before joining a few young startuppers and makers to discuss with the participants how to create and run your own venture. On the presentation I'm recording the roots of the greek startup ecosystem, its key players/organisations/VCs/initiatives, the biggest successes and failures the startup ecosystem of Greece, as well as the rise of entrepreneurship and startups in the national media discourse.
