The organizing team of Spark.me, one of the most carefully curated business/Internet conferences in Southeast Europe, which is set for May 25-26, in Porto Montenegro Auditorium, in Tivat, Montenegro, has just announced the new Spark.me 2019 keynote speaker – Peter Shankman. Peter is a five-time bestselling author, customer service expert, and serial entrepreneur.
The New York Times has called Peter “a rockstar who knows everything about social media and then some.” He is known for radically new ways of thinking about the customer economy, sharing practical concepts and ideas on how the next fifty years of economic growth will be led first and foremost by the customer experience. Peter is also using his platform to talk about the new neurodiverse economy, having started the Internet’s number one podcast on ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) – Faster than Normal, focusing on the superpowers and gifts of having a „faster than normal brain,“ which has helped thousands of people all around the world realize that having a neuroatypical brain is actually a gift, not a curse.
Peter is a serial entrepreneur with three startup launches and exits under his belt, among which is Help A Reporter Out (HARO), which became the standard for thousands of journalists looking for sources prior to being acquired three years after launch. He is also running the ShankMinds Breakthrough Network, an elite, online mastermind of thought leaders, business experts, and change makers. Peter is a two-time Ironman triathlete, and a class B licensed skydiver.
