#iRemember Social Media Case Study by ComFu - ArabNet Beirut 2014ArabNet ME
#iRemember… not only an amazing experience, but also an experiment joining Com Fu, Barista Espresso and the Online Community!
With Social Media falling gradually into the trap of Traditional Media, a disruption of the routine was needed.
For this purpose, a Social Experiment was devised by moving content creation from the Brand to the People and creating the first CSR campaign for Barista Espresso.
This gave birth to a 360 degree activation on Alzheimer’s Awareness Month, where people contributed through the different Social Media Platforms in support of the Alzheimer’s Association of Lebanon.

How To Create A Billion $ Category: Mark Organ's Dreamforce '13 KeynoteInfluitive
Why just a build a company when you can create a whole new category instead? That’s the question that Influitive founder and CEO Mark Organ explored in his packed Founders Forum session at Dreamforce 2013.
Here’s one really good reason: category creators tend to grow revenue 4x faster and grow market cap 6x faster than those companies that enter a category later on.
Based on Mark’s experience building marketing automation category creator Eloqua, what he’s learned so far as Influitive (http://influitive.com) carves out a brand new category – advocate marketing – a little over a decade later, and his observations on why other powerful category creators, including Salesforce.com, Tesla and Keurig, have been so successful, his presentation proposes a whole new framework for category creation.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Editor's Notes
MS CaresMS is Value for startupsMS is innovation
KEY MESSAGE: MS has a set of programs and technologies that can help any business and individuals to realize their full potential and be what’s next.
KEY MESSAGE: Savvy marketers must understand the technology trends shaping consumer behaviorToday’s CMOs and marketers must ask the game-changing question: “what’s next”? There are four consumer trends that we believe will have the most profound impact on the future of advertising. We believe these trends will materially change the relationship between a brand and its audience, and in doing so, present new challenges and business opportunities for marketers. A shift to multi device use – phones, PC, tablets and TV with content increasingly shared across them and synchronized between them. Social has evolved beyond discrete sites and has become a layer within everything we do with technology. We expect the ability to tweet, share, like and search from anywhere, and about anything.All of our devices are connected – and when they’re not we’re frustrated as our content is increasingly stored in cloud services and used across our PC, Phone, TV and tablets and more. And our interaction with technology is becoming more natural – we’re touching, gesturing and using voice to interact with computers in ways that more closely resemble the way engage with the real world, and with each other.
KEY MESSAGE: For consumers, Windows 8 seeks to unify all of your tasks and invite you in with its animated, live app tile design. For Microsoft, the consumer shoreline is expanding. Anything you’ve heard about Windows 8 and the ‘live tile’ design is really about a complete digital experience and one ecosystem. It’s an ecosystem that is threaded together by the cloud with layer upon layer of applications and services built on top of it – and make no mistake about it, we’re up against other ecosystems. That’s why over the past year, you’ve seen Microsoft push hard into the consumer space. Our ecosystem is grounded in a framework that centers around ‘live tiles’ that change and evolve with the user and what the user is doing – it’s the unique, design language of our ecosystem. The live tile format brings fluidity and seamless content interaction to every device and channel. The live tile apps are immersive, filling the entire screen so there are no distractions. The live tiles work together, making it easy to search, share, and send content between them.
KEY MESSAGE: With a connected Microsoft account, users can download apps and take them anywhere.When users are connected to the internet, their apps show them the latest content so that they can stay up to date. With a connected account, users can download apps and take them anywhere – so for example, their Facebook will be a constantly updated part of their People Tile.
KEY MESSAGE: All of our Windows 8 devices are connected to each other. This unique live tile design will eventually exist in every technology and device Microsoft brings to the marketplace, linking them seamlessly for consistent content experiences.We’ll be the first company to ever offer this type of experience. We want our advertising partners to be a part of the massive opportunity that it’s going to create.
KEY MESSAGE: Computing tomorrow is creating a different world. A different world calls for a different way to connect with consumers.The new generations of consumers are active critics, fact-finders, content creators, buzz-marketers and user-innovators. They demand highly personalized, socially relevant experiences. Thechallenge is up to us to step away from traditional business models, to let go of control of content and brand, and to adapt and innovate in thisever-changing marketplace. The fact is, the ads of today just won’t work tomorrow.
