EBP 2009 | Um sonho realizado

abertura_ebp.jpg

Ontem foi um dos dias mais especiais de toda minha vida, é verdade. Senti na pele a emoção de ver nascer e se desenvolver um grande projeto pessoal. Ao meu lado, durante todos os preparativos, estratégias e operacional, esteve meu colega e amigo, Guilherme Cury. Também conosco, contamos com a colaboração de pessoas ilustres para a concepção deste ambicioso evento. São eles, o prof. Eric Messa, da Faap, Bruno Delfino e Claudia Rosental. Todos eles foram essenciais para o concepção da segunda e inenarrável edição do Encontro de Blogueiros Publicitários, que aconteceu neste último sábado, dia 8 de agosto, na Faap.

Foram incontáveis dias de preparação e preocupações com tudo e com todos para que não houvesse nenhuma falha. No final, tudo correu perfeitamente bem, como uma resposta ao nosso enorme esforço e dedicação.

Palestrantes de destaque, que estão em alta no mercado da comunicação e do marketing, levaram um rico e plural conteúdo para o auditório lotado com mais de 200 pessoas talentosas, empreendedoras e com sede de conhecimento, o que causou uma repercussão sem precedentes na internet. (veja aqui).

Não posso deixar de agradecer também aos patrocinadores e parceiros: Nokia, HP, Olympus, Locaweb, Skol, Drimio, Seven Idiomas, DS One, Yahoo!, iThink, Bullet, Pix, ResultsOn, Nuts Valentina, Hotwords, Grupo Parisada, Vult, Multishow, AvessoTV, APP (Associação dos Profissionais de Propaganda) e, em especial, um agradecimento à professora Elenice Rampazzo, uma incentivadora que acreditou em nossa proposta e cedeu o espaço tão “grandioso” para realizarmos o evento.

Para finalizar, queria ressaltar a tamanha importância da Fischer América + Fala!, agência na qual eu trabalho há quase 1 ano, e que me fez aprimorar todos os conhecimentos válidos para por de pé algo tão especial.

Obrigado a todos, de coração. E até o ano que vêm  :)
