A Practical Guide to LinkedIn for: Economic Development Marketing and Attrac...Atlas Integrated
As the most popular professional networking tool worldwide, LinkedIn is an obvious place for economic development agencies to focus their social media strategies. However, most users take advantage of only a small fraction of its business development potential. This hands-on, interactive, BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) session in the Exhibit Hall will walk you through the practical ways you can put this online tool to use for networking, lead generation and business intelligence.
What you will learn:
• How to implement strategic improvements to your personal and organizational LinkedIn profiles
• Ways to employ an organizational profile for business retention and local community engagement
• Proven strategies for introductions, referrals, recommendations, and prospecting
All professionals must plan their social media strategy. If you are not an active participant or knowledgeable about the world of social media, how will you respond to needs, stay current, and brand yourself offline? Is this approach possible or effective? Are you aware of how or if your organization uses social media analytics? Innovative businesses are always looking for new ways to encourage loyalty, build relationships, and respond to customer needs. Social media analytics gives organizations a snapshot of these needs with insights gained from online conversations. New technology has the capacity to capture customer information with remarkable power to impact and drive revenue. Social Media Analytics uses social listening and predictive analytic techniques that help corporations manage the brand and reputation of products and services. This workshop will increase your knowledge and awareness of social media analytics and explore new and innovative social media strategies that impact professional and business productivity.
Learning Outcomes: This workshop will explore effective tools, for building, interpreting and using social media to increase professional and corporate effectiveness
At the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
a) Explore how social media helps corporation predict trends
b) Examine how information and data is analyzed
c) Identify which types of industries can benefit from social media analytics
d) Explore trends and innovation around social media for business outcomes and professional development
This presentation was given way back in August of 2009 to an Executive Networking group, American Association of Senior Executives, in Orange County.
This was way before LinkedIn was a commonly adopted professional network. I was an "early adopter" and saw the future impact.
This was 2 years before the LinkedIn IPO.
At the time, there were less than 25-30 million LinkedIn members.
It's old, school, but highlights what has happened in the last 4 years.
Enjoy!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

7. What you can do with Social Media
• Amass connections & impress your friends
• Avoid meeting people in person
• Find a date/mate/virtual friends…
• Find business partners , clients, suppliers, leads,• Find business partners , clients, suppliers, leads,
conduct business in any form,
• Research companies, markets and people,
• Meet like-minded people, share your activities,
• Lead discussions and groups, contribute & learn.
• Recruit and be recruited.
8. Building a profile “101”
• Don’t build a CV again, build an industry insider and expert
profile and highlight the salient points that fit you / your goal.
• Remain factual, achievement-oriented and honest.
• Get (good) referrals: pick referrers carefully, avoid
subordinates and friends, prefer native English speakers andsubordinates and friends, prefer native English speakers and
short referrals. Amend referrals if necessary. Refer back.
• Convey openness: share your connections, remain open to
connection requests and remain accessible.
• Share the groups you joined and what you write/read
(slideshare, amazon reading list etc) on your profile.
• Incomplete or botched profiles are worse than no profile at
all: explain achievements & ask for referrals asap.
9. Building a profile “201”
• Make profile public (use Linkedin Settings)
• Use keywords for search engines.
• Build short and impactful header – 1-2 lines with keywords (ie
Specialist of Energy sector in France | general manager| CFA)
• Custom & searchable URL: www.linkedin.com/in/johnsmith• Custom & searchable URL: www.linkedin.com/in/johnsmith
• Linkedin Status: refresh regularly, make it short and relevant
and highlight recent contributions (articles, blog post), public
speaking occasions, location (optional), and other content.
• Add links (websites of your company or organizations).
• Don’t put non-professional items in your profile
• Don’t get started 2 weeks before looking for a job. It takes
months to build a strong network and a complete profile.
11. 1. Go for the low hanging fruits first: invite friends, (ex)
colleagues, classmates etc. Aim at quantity first, then quality
2. Research companies and sectors you are interested in,
search people and understand their progression path.
3. Read target people’s profiles carefully to understand their
Building a network “101”
expectations. Get a feel if the person is an open-networker,
average bloke, or hard-to-get kind of person.
4. Find the right angle to approach him/her keeping in mind
what you can contribute to him/her.
5. Connecting through a 1st degree “friend”: identify the
dynamics (relationship between this person and the
targeted 2nd degree connection) and the weight your 1st
degree “friend” can bring in convincing target to connect.
12. 1. WHAT’S IN IT FOR THE OTHER GUY ? When writing an
invitation message, highlight the value you bring to the
connection, and only after, what is your main motivation
but DO NOT TALK ABOUT JOB SEARCH IN AN INVITATION.
2. Send a “Thank you” note via linkedin and email to the
other party who accepts your invitation. In the note, offer
Building a network “201”
other party who accepts your invitation. In the note, offer
to communicate offline (skype preferred at first) or email
on a specific topic, at a time convenient for both (don’t
sound desperate by accepting all timeslots – play a bit
“hard to get” as well).
3. Contribute without being asked first: offer to connect the
person to someone else you have in mind, send industry
insiders’ news on a regular basis, pick a topics of interest.
13. 1. “There is no sympathy in politics Linkedin” (original quote
from Margaret Thatcher): accepting or inviting connections is
not about making friends but creating value for both (and if
that creates friendship subsequently, even better).
2. Reach critical mass (+500 connections is ideal) but through
quality invitations on the long run.
Building a network “301”
quality invitations on the long run.
3. Caveats: getting too many “dings” from members you invite
(but who reject your invitation) can get your Linkedin profile
frozen temporarily or permanently.
4. Why accepting connections? Do you want to accept a
connection request from someone who will not reciprocate
(like a head hunter) or from someone who has incomplete
profile (info asymmetry)? Shall you accept any Insead invite?
15. Become a thought leader in Groups & Answers through timely
and relevant contributions & moderation etc.
1. Target the industry and company you are interested in.
2. Find the related Linkedin Groups and pick the groups with
the most members and highest activity.
Linkedin Groups: Anteroom to success
the most members and highest activity.
3. Reversely, target people you want to connect to, look at
what groups they have joined, then join the same groups
(maximum: 50 groups, non including sub-groups).
4. Read discussions & contribute by answering (or asking
smart) questions and offer to help moderate groups.
5. Build on these group discussions and invite target group
members using the “invite through a group” feature.
17. Getting the Job
Once foundation is laid out (complete profile, large and quality
network, relevant Groups involvement, participation to Linkedin
Answers), getting a job is far easier:
• Use Linkedin “Follow a Company”, “Follow Member” and/or
directly approach recruiting manager through Groups.
• Searching for Job Ads on Linkedin:
– If the company’s name is disclosed: reach recruiting manager (if this is
not an HR person) by getting a recommendation from an existing
connection already working in the company or who knows the person
well, and finally making contact once recommendation(s) done.
– If the company’s name is not disclosed (recruitment made by a
recruiter), DO NOT TRY TO INVITE THE RECRUITER AT FIRST, instead
send a linkedin message instead to discuss your profile’s relevance
with the job. Goal is to “force” the recruiter to review your profile
