“Hayk Kayserian represents the very best and brightest of our new generation of activists,” said Aram Hamparian, Executive Director of the ANCA. “His powerful combination of remarkable business success, world-class technical skills, and devoted community leadership will, no doubt, make for compelling presentations and also a productive exchange and exploration among all in attendance about how we can best take advantage of the rapidly evolving internet landscape to serve our community and advance our cause.”

Kayserian has been quoted by the San Francisco Chronicle, ABC7, Mashable, Venture Beat, AOL, Crain’s New York Business, YoungEntrepreneur.com, Startup Smart, Smart Company and the Seven Network, speaking about web and mobile business, social media and web marketing. He has spoken on these topics at public forums and events in three continents, and currently writes feature blogs for one of the largest social media blogs on the web, Social Times.

Recently, he was invited to present at Socialize New York – a summit dedicated to advising U.S. businesses about how to monetize social media. He will also present at the All Facebook Expo in San Francisco – put on by MediaBistro – immediately following the ANCA Armenian Cause 2.0 conference.
