mesh Keynote Update

We’re disappointed to let you know Jason Calacanis will not be able to do his keynote at mesh ‘09 due to a last-minute business commitment.

We know many people were looking forward to hearing Jason provide his insight about Mahalo, the venture capital landscape, and what’s happening within Silicon Valley. Jason was looking forward to visiting Toronto to speak at mesh, and spending some time when Mahalo developers located here.

The schedule for the morning of April 8 will now start with Mike McDerment having a fireside chat with venture fund advisor and well-known tech blogger Paul Kedrosky and venture capitalist Howard Lindzon about what’s next on the high-tech horizon.

This keynote will be followed by Stuart MacDonald talking with Bonin Bough, the Global Director of Digital and Social Media with PepsiCo, who oversees digital strategy and the implementation of social media tools and techniques across the company.

And the morning will be capped off by a keynote with Toronto Mayor David Miller.

We’re excited about seeing everyone on Tuesday!
