Portland, Singapore, China and Japan (日本語もあります。中文也有)
This is an introduction and a few announcements. I’ve been lurking here without posting for quite a while. My name is Ken Brady. As the Director of International Strategies for Centric, it’s about time I introduced myself and what I’m doing here.
Centric is commited to our international clients, and we’re working to make our company much more relevant on the world stage. Our new office in Tokyo is one step, our forthcoming office in Shanghai is another, and our international prospects in Second Life is yet another. My focus on developing international business is also part of that commitment, and there will be many more announcements in the near future. We now have clients in Japan and China, and have been speaking to potential clients in Taiwan, Thailand, Germany, Switzerland, Isreal, France, Brazil, Singapore, the U.K. and Australia.
I’m very excited about the possibilities, and welcome the challenge and unique opportunities that come from doing international business. These are exciting times!
PORTLAND
Jason and I are speaking at a Portland Advertising Federation event in Portland, Oregon. The seminar is called SecondLife: Web 2.0 Branding - Boldly Going Where Million$ are Right Now. Sounds like something we can handle, right? If you’re in the Portland area, we’d love to see you there.
