Who the heck is Ken Segall? In his own words:

“I’m a creative director who’s had more than a few adventures in technology marketing, including branding, product naming and strategy. I have a long history with Apple and NeXT — where I took a blood oath to uphold the principles of simplicity.”

In fact, Ken was the marketing Svengali bought back to Apple by Steve Jobs when he returned to the Apple fold when he was named interim CEO in 1997.

He revolutionised Apple with his ‘Think Different’ campaign and added to the world’s vocabulary that powerful little ‘i’ which stands unabashedly before thousands of Apple products.

As well as Apple, Ken has been involved in some of the most successful brands of the past 20 years including IBM, BMW and Intel. So he has done some cool stuff and knows a lot about marketing, Apple and a whole bunch of other great technology businesses. He also runs the Scoopertino blog. We think he is the kind of person that you want to hear from. We can’t wait.

The BLN CEO Tales with Ken Segall offers participants the chance to hear Ken talk about his experiences within Apple and witness the UK launch of his much anticipated book ‘Insanely Simple: the obsession that drives Apple’s success’, followed by a lively Q&A and networking.

You will receive a copy of Ken’s book ‘Insanely Simple: the obsession that drives Apple’s success’ with our compliments.
