It’s with immense pleasure that I announce that we are taking Seattle 2.0 to the next level by having
Jennifer Cabala heading the Seattle 2.0 business and editorial content. Jennifer will be the President and Editor-in-Chief of the new Seattle 2.0.
If you don’t know Jennifer, she has been a reporter in Seattle for last few years now at KING 5 and before that for Q13. She’s also on the board of Social Media Club Seattle, and an exceptional writer. Jennifer has a passion for technology and for startups. To top it off, she was looking at building her own business and becoming an entrepreneur. Why not become an entrepreneur at Seattle 2.0? We asked and she agreed it was a great step for her.
Seattle 2.0 has been a mix of new media, technology and events, and we plan to continue this way. But there is a lot more we haven’t done yet that Jennifer will be able to improve and take to the next level. Consistently, I’ve been asked by founders and CEOs of Seattle-based startup to improve our coverage of their services, to feature profiles of the great people working on the startup ecosystem in Seattle, to add this or that feature to the website to make it more useful and to do more events. Jennifer will be able to make that a reality and much more [no pressure Jennifer].
We will continue to have entrepreneurs and investors as regular contributors to Seattle 2.0, as well as guest bloggers.
What about me? Well, I’ll continue to be a blogger contributor and a hands-on advisor for Seattle 2.0, and there will be a transition period where Jennifer and I will be sharing some of the core responsibilities.
Please, help me welcome Jennifer to her new venture -- she and I will be at the WTIA Industry Achievement Awards tonight.
