The event started with the New York Times kick-off breakfast with keynote speaker Michael Rogers, New York Times’ Futurist-in-residence. He spoke about the advancement of technology, the challenges and opportunities for small and mid-size businesses to take advantage of the technology to get in front of prospects and customers and what to look forward to in the future.

FohBoh: The Social Network For Food!

From Adotas.com...

FohBoh Inc. announced the launch of its first-to-market social network for the global restaurant, food and beverage industry today. FohBoh is short for “front of the house, back of the house” and focuses on creating the “LinkedIn” for the restaurant business.

Michael L. Atkinson, CEO and co-founder of the site stated “There’s not been a major online social gathering spot for folks in our industry until now. MySpace and Facebook are clear leaders in generic social networking today and have educated the market, but they are entirely horizontal, so they don’t cater well to niches of specific interest. This is where FohBoh excels. A restaurateur in Australia might give someone in Chicago a terrific idea on how to better promote their restaurant.”
