Dscoop (Digital Solutions Cooperative) has announced that business motivation speaker Mark King and entrepreneur and The New York Times best-selling author Gary Vaynerchuk, will deliver keynote addresses at the 2013 Dscoop annual conference. Dscoop8: Spark, the organization’s eighth annual conference, will take place Feb. 21-23, 2013, at Gaylord Opryland Hotel and Convention Center in Nashville, TN.
King is CEO and president of TaylorMade, the world’s leading golf equipment manufacturer. He has spent 30 years immersed in the golf industry and has gained an understanding of his customers and consumers. King has consistently been named by Golf Inc. magazine as one of the 10 most powerful people in golf and has been featured in some of the nation’s top business magazines such as The Harvard Business Review, Fortune and Brandweek. King will share his stories of success and leadership despite a challenging economy and a slow-growing industry at Dscoop8.
A business visionary, self-trained wine and social media expert, Vaynerchuk launched Winelibrary.com in 1997 and helped grow his family’s business from $3 million to $45 million by 2005. Considered one of BusinessWeek magazine’s top 20 people every entrepreneur should follow, Vaynerchuk is known as a social media trailblazer with close to 1 million Twitter followers. In 2009, Vaynerchuk and his brother AJ launched VaynerMedia, a new breed of agency that helps Fortune 500 companies like Campbell Soup Company, PepsiCo, Green Mountain Coffee, the NY Jets, and the Brooklyn Nets find their social media voices and build their digital brands. Vaynerchuk’s presentation will provide an original take on entrepreneurship and the new frontiers of customer service made possible by the Internet.
“Dscoop8 is about inspiring members to discover the latest innovations, trends and technical expertise to drive their business strategy,” says Howard Owen, Dscoop8 chairman and owner of Stafford Printing.
“King and Vaynerchuk each deliver a message that not only motivates owners but also their employees in the technical, marketing and sales fields. They will help us establish a vision and strategy to engage our staff and drive short and long term business results.”
In addition to inspiring keynote presentations, planned highlights for Dscoop8 include:
Over its seven-year history, the Dscoop annual conference has grown steadily in attendance as well as Partner participation. The 2012 event in Washington, D.C. attracted more than 2,000 print professionals and 95 Partners that provide complementary products and services to graphic arts businesses.
