COSE Small Business Conference

Here’s a special opportunity for Greater Cleveland Partnership Investor-level members to attend the 2011 COSE Small Business Conference on Oct. 19 and 20 at the I-X Center at no cost! We’re offering five complimentary registrations per company so that your representatives can take advantage of two days of networking opportunities and the chance to view dozens of exhibits showcasing the latest business-enhancing innovation.

Plus, you'll have the opportunity to hear from these business innovators:

Keynote speakers:

  • Daymond John, founder and CEO of FUBU and a panelist on ABC's "Shark Tank," pioneered the art of integrating fashion, culture and music nearly 20 years ago. From his then-unprecedented guerrilla marketing and branding techniques to the continuously innovative ways in which he uses social media, brand integration and expertise on pop culture, John steered FUBU from a concept to a global fashion powerhouse. John also is one of four prominent executives helping people launch their company or product on ABC's "Shark Tank."


  • Jeffrey F. Rayport, digital marketing, sales and e-commerce expert, is one of the world's most respected authorities on how companies engage and interact with customers using a "how you sell is as important as what you sell" approach. He is a thought leader, consultant, author and former professor at Harvard Business School who coined the term "viral marketing." Rayport brings an incredible knowledge of the online commerce space and is focused on the strategic opportunities presented by mobility, smart technologies and social networks to drive business growth.
     
  • Local panel: Several inspiring local business owners will discuss their roads to success, their challenges along the way and how they have positioned themselves for growth.
