BSG Alliance is a big fan of coworking and the Social Media Club.  We will be hosting this week's Jelly Austin to share some good news and to enable live videopodcasting of an event we are hosting in NY at the Marriott Marquis.  Details on the Jelly Austin can be found at the Social Media Club of Austin web site.

The live event details are listed below:

Don Tapscott, best-selling author of Wikinomics and founder of New Paradigm, and Steve Papermaster, chairman and CEO of BSG Alliance Corp., invite you to join them, along with the senior executives of several leading Global 2000 companies, for a unique, invitation-only, “live” discussion on the “Opportunities and challenges for business innovation in the new era,” as well as a very special announcement.

Don't miss this opportunity to hear first-hand how global innovation and collaboration is now on the international agenda. Tapscott is heading a multi-million dollar research project called "Government 2.0: Wikinomics, Government and Democracy" and will be a fellow to the World Economic Forum's upcoming annual meeting in Davos Switzerland -- this year themed on the topic of Collaborative Innovation. Papermaster is playing a major role in shaping U.S. policy with China, as a member of the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.

Both will draw upon these unique leadership positions as they guide a panel that includes senior executives, such as J. Chris Scalet, senior vice president, Global Services, and chief information officer, Merck & Co., Inc., and Brian Fetherstonhaugh, Chairman and CEO of OgilvyOne through what is sure to be a riveting discussion on the macro-economic and sociological trends that are underpinning the Web 2.0 revolution.
