I’ve mentioned this before but I’m super excited to be emceeing NTEN’s Online NTC Live! Livestream on Wednesday and Thursday this week (April 4/5). This is the “in between the sessions” stuff – the taste of the live event that will hopefully give online viewers that sense of being part of the action. Here is a quick rundown for you of the full schedule:
WEDNESDAY:
- Opening Keynote by Dan Roam of Back of the Napkin fame, talking about his new book Blah Blah Blah.
- 1/2 hour break – I’ll be introducing a whole ton of awesome people who will talk a little about what their nonprofits are up to, both as newbies and veterans of the NTC conference; I’ll also talk about latest news hot off the press, and some of the service projects going on around San Francisco.
- LIVESTREAMED SESSIONS - Picturing Your Data is Better Than 1,000 Numbers: Data Visualization Techniques for Social Change
/ Building and Supporting Drupal Websites: In-House, Outhouse, or Both?
- 15 min break – I’ll intro Common Knowledge who will talk about their latest Nonprofit Social Networking Benchmarking Report
- SESSIONS: 4 Strategies for Going Mobile / Digital team structure – the underlying foundation for innovation
- 1/2 hour break – I’ll interview a bunch of folks about takeaways from fundraising sessions they attended; then David Neff will interview Melissa Roberts & Drew Bearn from Free Range along with Dan Michel from Feeding America on innovation
- SESSIONS: Extreme Analytics / Doing it on your Own, When to Call in the Consultants, When to Leave Them Out
- Wrap-up – I’ll be talking to Evonne Heyning of TechSoup about livestreaming / hybrid tips. Meta, right?
THURSDAY
- Opening keynote – panel on innovation. I expect this to be a million miles away from the similarly-themed association conferences I’ve been to recently – will tell you all about it here on the blog later. These people don’t just sit around and talk about innovation, they are out there changing the world.
- 15 min break – David Neff will get some reactions to the keynote, and I’ll interview some of the finalists for the DoGooder Video Awards, to preview the awards handed out at lunch.
- SESSIONS: Data Dive: Advanced Segmentation Techniques / What Your E.D. Needs to Know: Tech Infrastructure as Social Media Secret Sauce
- Awards lunch livestream – we’ll see all of the amazing people deserving recognition for changing the world this past year. Incredibly inspiring and moving.
- SESSIONS: Easy Reading on the Go: How to optimize emails for mobile phones / The Cloud Beckons, But is it Safe?
- 1/2 hour break – I’ll talk to Frank Barry of Blackbaud about the Social Networking Report and international volunteers from Netsquared’s Global Leadership Council will share their experiences of the conference.
- SESSIONS: The Story of Stuff: How an Environmental Campaigner Became a New Media Mogul – and So Can You / How to Create a Blogging Plan for Your Nonprofit
- Wrap-up. Maybe a book giveaway? We’ll see if I have any books left after the signing on Tuesday. Then I’ll cry because I’ll be so sad that it’s over.
Here’s Dave to give you a quick taster. Hope you can join us – register now. It’s the best $200 you’ll spend all year.
