My presentation at Ad:Tech Paris ‘09

April8

Yesterday, I made a presentation to  Ad:Tech Paris, the Digital Marketing Event. Ad:Tech is an international event for internet marketing professionals. I wanted to share with you my presentation (you can even download the PDF here). Ad:Tech contacted me to present my campaign for the Best Job in The World.  Sorry the slides are in french, but you’ll understand :). There was a lot of interest from the audience.

April2

Update : Top 11 will now be Top 16
They decided to extend the short list from 10 to 15 - plus the Wild Card winner Clare.

What a suspense. Will I be part of the top 16?
At this time, I think TQ has already chosen the 15 finalists. Rather than just wait for a good or a bad news, I wanted to share this unique moment with some friends and media tonight at home. Let’s celebrate this adventure together: party night!
