Presentation given at the Like Minds Social Commerce Immersive, London, Weds. 9th Feb. 2011. Part of the Like Minds series of events for Social Media Week London
The holy grail of social media is the conversion of conversational value into economic gains.
Marketers and advertisers are still “pushing” intrusive messages as the common means of propagating their offerings. Even when the data strongly suggest that these methods are inefficient and not considered “social” the massive spending on old methods continues. The holy grail of the next social paradigm shift will be finding innovation that can monetize interaction for all parties while enabling social engagement.
Has The Innovation Arrived?

Opportunities for Land-Based Casinos in a Digital WorldNicky Senyard
With the conversations I’m having in the US, I see a great opportunity now for the land-based casinos in non-regulated markets to move online. I sat down with Rory Shanahan from Scientific Games last week to share my thoughts with the industry in the first of a two-part webinar series hosted by iGaming Business. If you missed the webinar, here’s a recap on my discussion about how US land-based casinos can use social gaming as a customer acquisition and retention tool.
Below are the key points from what was an insightful discussion on how the US land-based sector is evolving in the digital space:
• US land-based casinos have the opportunity to introduce a social gaming product to their current customer databases as both an engagement and retention tool
• US land-based casinos are in an optimal position to market a digital casino product because of the pre-established brand recognition and existing relationships with their customers,
• Digital casino products, whether free play or virtual currency, can act as an acquisition tool to grow customer databases
For a more detailed recap, check out the slideshow. What are your thoughts on the US casino landscape? Let’s continue the conversation. I’ll also be giving a recap of the second iGB webinar in the next few days.

Every organization has unrealized wealth because intangible capital has not been realized as tangible evidence of influence over wealth creation processes.
The primary purpose of intangible capital is to enable human, strategic, structural and relationship capital to continuously create and improve value on behalf of stakeholders.

These rules are fundamental principles that are hardwired into the intangible economy, and that apply to all businesses and industries, not just high-tech ones. Think of these principles as new economic rules of thumb

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?

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.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
