| Portfolio Signs as Event Sponsor |
|
Condé Nast Portfolio,
the much-ballyhooed new business magazine from the 4 Times Square publishing
giant, is positioning itself next to the country’s top dealmakers. According to
Crain’s, the magazine announced May 14 that it will
be the exclusive media partner for the annual Foursquare conference in
November. This is Portfolio’s first
big outside partnership, and it would be hard-pressed to find one more
prestigious.
The conference, run by the private investment firm
Quadrangle, is a two-day, invitation-only fest for kingpins in business,
technology, media, and entertainment. Last year’s event drew the likes of
YouTube co-founder Chad Hurley, Sony chief Howard Stringer, Harvey Weinstein,
and Jerry Seinfeld. As part of the agreement, the magazine will run selected
editorial content and exclusive video from the conference on its Web site,
though exactly which parts remains TBD.
