The Inaugural In3 talk: Nuffnang
by Wei Leen on Feb.08, 2009, under Business Lessons, internet, media
Ladies & Gentlemen we have an announcement to make. After weeks of begging, pleading, cajoling and threats of virtual violence, we’ve managed to invite the two founders of Nuffnang to speak at our inaugural talk.
The two gentlemen are (in alphabetical order): Cheo Ming Shen (Boss Ming) & Timothy Tiah (Boss Stewie). Both these fine gentlemen will be coming over to the University Hall auditorium @ NUS on the 4th of March (Wed). The talk itself will take place from 7pm till an estimated 830-9pm.
For the uninitiated, Nuffnang is as they say, Asia Pacific’s first blog advertising community. It is also a company that grew its user base from 300 to 70,000 in under 2 years. It currently has operations in 4 countries (Aus/M’sia/Phi/Sg) and counts such blogosphere luminaries as Kennysia, Xiaxue, Jeffooi and Dawn Yang among its members. Sometimes, learning about the existence of such a company feels like discovering life on Mars. The odds are stacked against it and the very laws of nature must have been broken.
Are there enough famous bloggers to support this industry? How did they avoid getting crushed by Google Adwords? Can blog ads be as profitable as ads on regular webpages? Do that many people from Singapore, Malaysia or the Philippines actually click on banner ads? Is e-commerce secure enough for advertisers to make money?
All these questions and more can finally be answered.

Haha thanks for dropping by. Next talk will probably be next month or August, nothing in between. Better to wait a while so we can have really great speakers! We entertain requests too if you have people in mind.
