From PR Newswire: A strategic partnership called Re-Branding You has been formed by Pat Ahaesy and Ny Whitaker out of a growing concern about job losses and the financial crisis in the New York Metro area. The result of their joint endeavor, the Re-Branding You Conference NYC 2009, is a full-day program created for unemployed or transitioning New York City professionals. The event will include: valuable information on emerging industries locally and nationally, the newest methods to network your way into a job, professional coaching, innovative ideas for starting a small business in today's economy, access to local resources, and opportunities to engage with conference sponsors. They represent 99.7 percent of all employer firms and employ half of all private sector workers (Source: U.S. SBA Office of Advocacy). "As small business owners, educators, and entrepreneurs, Pat and I wanted to create a vehicle that gives people the relevant tools they need to re-gain employment now," explained Ny Whitaker, one half of the Re-Branding You Team. The Re-Branding You Conference will be held on Tuesday, March 31, 2009 at the Lighthouse Executive Conference Center at 111 East 59th Street, featuring speakers from the NYU School of Continuing and Professional Studies, NYC Business Solutions, Five O'Clock Club, Manhattan Chamber of Commerce, Freelancers Union, various authors, journalists, thought-leaders, and more! Pat Ahaesy is the President of P&V Enterprises, a Manhattan-based, woman-owned event management and production company, and the Co-Producer for Education and Logistics of the Re-Branding You Conference NYC 2009.
