  • Hosted 1,000 visiting media to the 2012 DNC with The PPL, a 20k sq. ft. co-working space, and welcomed policy leaders including Chuck Schumer, Rahm Emanuel, and Howard Dean
  • Produced a week-long live-broadcasted event series in partnership with Ustream that attracted 50k viewers, and featured thought leaders from tech (Twitter, Facebook, Google) and nonprofits/NGOs (Startup America, AFT, SEUI)
