I’d like to see if we have any innovators in the room today. Please stand up if: - your name is on a patent - you work for an innovative company that holds a patent or patent pending product - you market, sell or develop a product that holds a patent or patent pending product - you have attended an IEWA conf. previously - this is your first IAEWS conf…. Innovative by association Look around you. Congratulations you are all either an innovator, work for an innovator, or are becoming an innovator, which makes you eligible for participation in an exclusive industry awards program… called the ReSI’s Trip down memory lane: 17 congresses.

IAEWS Innovation Through the Years Crowd Sourcing Prediction Analytics Social Media Mobile Candidate UX Traffic Arbitrage Pay-for-Performance Social Media Job Aggregation Pay-for-Performance Job Aggregation Big Data In the face of the recession and economic crisis of 2008, IAEWS was born. Time and time we had been told that job boards were dead. We spent the last 7 years defeating that false claim. When people say that today, (have you noticed you don’t hear that very often anymore) it kinds of rings hollow, because people have recognized that job boards have changed. I liked the recent article I saw in the XXX that said is LinkedIn still a job board, after the acquisition of the learning company. The same editorial that once claimed job boards were dead, now recognizes Linkedin as one of the most successful job boards. Its no coincidence that back in 2008, the primary focus of the IAEWS conferences was social media. Nearly A decade of innovation: dramatic changes in our industry 2008: Social Media Chris Russell then with jobs in pods and Steven Rothenberg then with College Recruiter…and still with college recruiter 2009: Job Aggregation: Gautham SimplyHired 2010 Mobile txtmejobs.com Dan Finnegan with JobVite talked about crowd sourcing and people aggregation 2011: Pay for performance 2012 2013 Mike Durney Dice, reminded us that Big data makes Specialty has always been the best source of information and makes it more important 2014: Ian Siegel Zip Recruiter Predictions on Big Data and that will enable prediction of performance Chris Forman highlighted how traffic arbitrage was going to make CPA much bigger than CPC 2015 ????? 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015

So, how do we get the recognition we deserve? Correlation or Causation?
