Visible Banking: interview with Eric Olson, V.P. Business Development at BuzzFeed

I found Eric Olson's profile on Linkedin, when I was looking for web 2.0 experts in NYC.

I went to NYC essentially to cover Finovate, but I also made sure I would make the most of my stay in big apple.


Eric responded to my email and invited me to meet him in BuzzFeed new offices in the vibrant Chinatown.

Eric is not only the VP Business Development of BuzzFeed but he is also one of the co-Founders of Tech Cocktail, the organizer of web 2.0 events in Chicago, DC, and Boston. Prior to his appointment at BuzzFeed, Eric was in charge of Business Development at FeedBurner (acquired by Google in June 07).

Eric is passionate about web 2.0, Social Media and Word of Mouth. During the interview, we talked about web 2.0 and the success of the Tech Cocktail Events he initiated initially in Chicago and now on the east coast.

I invite you to check Eric's blog at EricJohnOlson.com, join the BuzzFeed widget network and check the Social Financial Websites Buzz.
