Watch Highlights of the Entrepreneur Growth Conference In case you missed the one-day event in California this week, catch up with Chris Brogan's keynote and hear from the award winners.
Entrepreneur hosted our annual Growth Conference on Weds., Jan. 11th in Long Beach, Calif., that featured experts in the fields of social media, financing, branding, franchising, productivity and more.
Hundreds attended the event in person. We streamed some of the highlights live for those who couldn't make it to California. And even if you didn't have a chance to watch the conference live, you still haven't missed the opportunity.
Chris Brogan kicked off the conference with a keynote speech about the importance of developing mobile strategies in the year ahead. A best-selling author and popular blogger with more than 200,000 Twitter followers, Brogan discussed the ins-and-outs of developing an online business.
Later in the day, the three winners of Entrepreneur magazine's Entrepreneur of 2011 awards spoke to the attendees. A panel of judges, including Entrepreneur Editor-in-Chief Amy C. Cosper and Vice President of Marketing Lisa Murray, selected 15 finalists from the thousands of entries submitted for the awards. Readers voted at Entrepreneur.com. The judges and the readers selected their favorites.
