The @Be2Talks + Be2awards – London 26 Sept

I started blogging as a way of increasing my profile, to attract sponsors, to help with the costs of racing, particularly internationally. I joined twitter I seem to remember to try and get some more publicity to win the Doreset Cereals little blog awards. I then realised that twitter was huge in my area of work (Building Information Modelling and IT in the Construction Industry) and I have jumped in with two feet becoming a big user of twitter and ausing it to network effectively amongst my piers and promote the company I work for, Pozzoni (www.pozzoni.co.uk).

I have just been invited to speak at the Built Environment Social Networking awards next week in London, the Be2 Awards and Talks ! Ill be sharing a platform with a few Built environment types giving 20 minute presentations amongst the awards, but also Carlton Reid who will be the Be2Bike Keynote on the growing application and importance of social media in the world of cycling. I am honored to be in the same lineup as Carlton @carltonreid who has been writing about bicycles and travel for 20 years. He has written for many cycling and travel magazines and UK newspapers including The Guardian and The Independent, and is the author of several books on travel and cycling. He is executive editor of BikeBiz.com, editor of Bikehub.co.uk, Quickrelease.tv and iPayRoadTax.com. Author of the acclaimed Bike to Work Book, his latest project is Roads were not built for Cars

Be2 talks and awards are not just about the built environment but are about promoting the use of social networking across sectors. If you are in London on Wednesday afternoon why not come along. Cost £15.00
