IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
Jon Gosier, Data Scientist, Serial Entrpreneur, and Senior TED Fellow, is taking the helm as host of Pivot 2015. Although Jon came on the radar for many with his 2014 TED talk “The Problem with Trickle Down Techonomics” his work as a problem solver and investor placed him consistently in the press for several years before that appearance. From creating a model that allowed middle class individuals to invest in start-ups, to establishing the Appfrica fund to support tech investments in emerging markets, Jon’s projects have consistently demonstrated his drive to make the tech world more inclusive. A senior TED fellow, Jon demonstrates that thoughtful leaders can make digital transformation beneficial for both businesses and communities.

Greetings,
Five years ago Pivot introduced the concept of the Social Revolution, which like its predecessors the PC and Internet Revolutions, completely transformed the way humans interact and do business.
Fast forward to 2015 - as we continue to celebrate the ever-expanding world of possibilities offered by emerging technologies, it has become clear that the word Social no longer suffices to describe the type of transformation required to keep pace with the current speed of digital evolution — no single word can.
Uniquely curated to address the nuances of complete business transformation from the ideation phase, to the hiring and maintenance of the team who will bring that concept to fruition, to the customer interaction touchpoint, Pivot 2015 will inspire you with dramatic spotlight presentations and engaging roundtable discussions. Engrossing you into a digital transformation journey, Pivot 2015 will provide a roadmap for how to distill those big ideas into actions you can take immediately back to the office and workshop for implementation.
What has not changed and what makes Pivot so much more than any single session is our audience of brand leaders like you. Whether this is your first Pivot or your fifth the collective knowledge and support result in a community you will value for years to come.
We can not wait to gather this community together again this October 29th at The Dream Downtown in New York City.
Sincerely,
The Pivot Advisory Board
Announcing the 2015 Pivot Speaker Faculty
We will continue to add speakers over the coming months. For additional speakers please check the website at pivotcon.com/pivotcon/speakers.

ABOUT THE VENUE
Dream Downtown • 355 West 16th St. New York, NY 10011 • 212.229.2559Fronted by an ocean liner-inspired stainless steel façade and riddled with porthole windows, the grand exterior of Dream Downtown hails its 1960s role as the National Maritime Union headquarters. Inside, it’s the stuff of reveries – a lobby that seems to buzz with energy as if alive on its own; a glass- bottomed swimming pool floating in the ceiling high above; pockets of guests and locals alike catching up over cocktails or being mesmerized by their gadgets. This is your dream.

Spotlight Showcases Specifically designed to immerse the Pivot brand attendee into a specific digital theme, these evening events will take place in unique venues across NYC. Part education, part reception — the planned showcases for 2015 will revolve around the following concepts:
Monday 10/26Virtual Reality for Brands Come and experience VR for yourselves and learn how your brand and organization can take advantage of the fully immersive customer experience that VR can offer. You’ll have the opportunity to experience the Oculus Rift, Samsung VR Gear, Microsoft Hololens and more.
Tuesday 10/27The Next Generation with Pivot and MTV The Post-Millennial Digital Natives are an enigma that brands need to solve and MTV Insights can help. Explorations such as High School Today and 50 Shades of Nerd along with in depth research into their audience has given MTV Insights a unique understanding of this complicated group. This showcase will include a live conversation with actual Post-Millennials who will share specific input about brand marketing that either excites or alienates them. Additionally MTV Insights will recap recent research alongside installations from their touring “High School Today” exhibit. This showcase will be a one of a kind, fully interactive and social event and we hope you will join us.
Wednesday 10/28The Pivot Facepalm FestivalIn the moment it couldn’t be worse, your mouth goes dry, your forehead beads with sweat as you realize you’ve made a mistake. Somehow whether the mistake is one of simple data entry or an expensive initiative that falls flat, all failures take a toll. The only comfort is that they happen to all of us. Part Stand-Up Comedy and Part Group Therapy this evening will give you the chance to share your failures, big or small, and commiserate with peers who know your pain.
Thursday 10/29Pivot Gala & Social Starts ShowcaseAs a part of our celebration Gala at the close of Pivot, the Social Starts community has sponsored a Social Starts Showcase featuring the latest start-ups with the most brilliant technologies. We hope you’ll join us in supporting them as they demonstrate their technologies throughout the evening affair. If you’re a start-up, please contact Alexandra ([email protected])to check for participation eligibility.
