The conference will offer three educational tracts: Leadership, Business, and Safety for Women (in the bee yard and in the board room), featuring a total of 32 different topics.  Speakers are trained, experienced, licensed experts in law, accounting, biology, volunteer administration, education, leadership, and more.  Speakers will provide you with the “how to” you need to start your business, provide insightful “lessons learned” from real-world experience in management, and offer skills and strategies for personal safety in and around the bee yard and the board room. To learn more about the speakers go to https://leadforpollinators.org/index.php/speakers/

This event serves unique needs in beekeeping and agriculture.  Planning for all contingencies in an uncertain world, we are expanding the attendance option to include “virtual on-line attendance” for registered attendees. Our conference will be produced by professional conference videographers and IT specialists experienced in virtual events. 

Our featured speaker at the opening day lunch will be Denise O’Brien, founding Director of the Women, Food and Agricultural Network.  Denise has farmed in southwest Iowa for 37 years with her husband Larry Harris, and operated a CSA farm called Rolling Acres that includes three acres of fruits and vegetables and six acres of apples. She also raises organic chickens and turkeys.  In addition to farming, she has been involved with community volunteering and policy work in the agricultural sector. Denise lobbied with the Iowa Farm Unity Coalition, directed the Rural Women’s Leadership Development Project of Prairie Fire Rural Action, Inc. and was president of the National Family Farm Coalition.  Denise has served on numerous advisory boards with the Community Food Security Coalition, the Farm to School Council, and the Iowa Women’s Foundation to name a few. She was a W.F. Kellogg Food and Society Policy Fellow from 2001-2003. From 2011 to 2012, Denise was a USDA advisor in Jalalabad, Afghanistan.

For her depth of work and outreach, Denise has received the 2005 Practical Farmers of Iowa Sustainable Agriculture Award, the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Iowa Farmer’s Union and the Athena Award from the Atlantic, Iowa Chamber of Commerce. In 2000 Denise was inducted into Iowa’s Women’s Hall of Fame.

Becoming 21st Century Leaders: Women in Beekeeping & Agriculture, Oct. 24-25, 2020, will bring together (on-site and virtually online) a hive of experienced, diverse, purposeful individuals to expand the opportunities for women (and men) as keepers of the ecosystem to support the health and sustainability of honey bees, native pollinators, and beekeeping.

14th Annual Multicultural Media for Multicultural America Forum

14th Annual Multicultural Media for Multicultural America Forum
Horowitz Associates’ 14th Annual Multicultural Media for Multicultural America Forum
March 20, 2014 | Edison Ballroom, NYC
8:00am – 5:30pm

The Multicultural Media Forum is a unique, research and strategy-driven event attended yearly by roughly 400 executives and decision-makers from the media, advertising, technology, and financial industries. Originally conceived as a summit to call the industry’s attention to the then-untapped value of multicultural consumers to businesses across the media spectrum, the Forum was the first and remains the leading event focused on the media consumption behaviors, attitudes, and demands of America’s diverse “new general market.” The theme of this year’s event is Transcending Multiculturalsim.

Our aim through this year’s Multicultural Media Forum is to lead the media industry beyond its conventional understanding of “multiculturalism” and toward a new paradigm of “transculturalism” that encompasses and weaves together America’s myriad cultures into a new vision of the mainstream that truly reflects our country’s vibrant diversity. What exactly is transculturalism? How is it different from other words that are being used of late—words like multicultural, total-market or cross-cultural? Perhaps most importantly, what are the implications of this idea of transculturalism to all aspects of the media industry? Whether your business is aimed towards the “general market,” Millennials, or whether you target distinct multicultural segments, understanding the implications of transculturalism will be critical for your future success.
 

The agenda will include a research presentation featuring new research on Hispanic and multicultural consumers and their media habits. The agenda will also include a case study from sesame workshop entitled “Lessons from the Street: What Sesame Workshop Learned from Hispanic Moms and Kids.” Learn more about this new concept and the future of the media industry at this March 20th event.

Confirmed speakers and panelists include:

  • Julio Arrieta, Managing Director, Brand Leadership, Lopez Negrete
  • Clayton Banks, President, Ember Media
  • Artie Bulgrin, SVP, Research & Analytics, ESPN
  • Silvina Cendra, Planning Director, Grupo Gallegos
