PR Camp Coming to Atlanta

PR Camp Atlanta is your ticket to a morning of fun, interactive learning that’s gets you out of the office. This unique, highly interactive event will discuss social media and its impact on public relations, marketing and communications. Social media has been the hot topic in public relations in recent years and it’s not going away any time soon. This will be a great learning experience AND a lot of fun!

The professionals leading the discussion will be called counselors and will simply facilitate discussion rather than speaking to the audience. This event will be truly interactive, allowing for everyone in attendance to learn something new. This is the first event of its kind and it has an all-star team of counselors:

• Katie Mingo, Senior Marketing Associate, Delta Airlines
• Marilynn Mobley, Senior Vice President, Strategic Counsel, Edelman PR
• James Andrews, Managing Partner, Everywhere
• Carol Flammer, Managing Partner, mRELEVANCE
• Chris Jones, Digital Strategist, Ketchum PR
• Melanie Babcock, Senior Vice President and Director Digital Strategy & Services, Manning Selvage & Lee
• Peter Fasano, Principal/Lead Catalyst, mass+logic
• Bert Dumars, Vice President E-Business & Interactive Marketing, Newell Rubbermaid
• Irfan Kamal, Vice President, Digital Strategy, Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide
• Jennifer Schmitt, President and Director of Client Strategy, CloudSpark
• Shirley Powell, Senior Vice President, Corporate Communications, Turner Broadcasting System
• Debbie Curtis-Magley, Public Relations Manager, UPS

PR Camp Atlanta is for PR, marketing and communications professionals and people who are interested in social media. The “unconference” has a different format than a typical conference and will be based on discussion of case studies. There will be three major topics addressed:

• How to get clients and bosses to extend their interest in new media.
• How to help senior professionals tap the social media experience of junior colleagues.
• How to determine the best ways to measure success with the blurring lines of marketing and PR.

PR Camp Atlanta will be held Friday, August 21st from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Georgia Tech Research Institute Conference Center. Register online for this can’t-miss educational event. The cost is $20 in advance and $25 at the door which include breakfast.
