Daniel Demsky is the Co-Founder of Unbound Merino, Co-Founder and Head of Business Development, BizMedia, A Digital Video Agency, Partner at Hitsu Socks, Board Member of EO Canada Regional Board, and Partner at dbrand.com, a manufacturer of vinyl skins for laptops and smartphones. Unbound Merino: Stylish, simple Merino wool apparel that can be worn for weeks or even months – without ever needing to be washed. That means you can ditch the big suitcase when traveling because all you'll need is your carry-on. Unbound Merino has created travel essentials that will bring out the true minimalist in you. Unbound Marino's Story: Unbound Merino was created by three lifelong friends who spent their high school days taking road trips across America to see their favorite bands. Every time they came home, all they could think about was saving enough money for the next big adventure. It didn't take long until they turned their sights on the rest of the world. Like many seasoned travelers, they were drawn to the incredible natural benefits of Merino wool. The fabric was perfectly suited for travel, but it was typically designed as high-performance outdoor activewear, with flashy logos and unnecessary embellishments. Sure, it performed great on a hike, but they wanted something that did that and also looked great at a restaurant, in a museum, at a rock concert, and out on the town. After years of researching, designing, and prototyping – they partnered with industry leaders to create the most stylish, versatile, and highest performing Merino wool clothing that's made specifically for travel and everyday life. Unbound Merino's purpose is to create simple, high-performance clothing that is versatile enough for any occasion. Today, Unbound Merino is worn by countless fellow travelers all over the world. Their clothing is designed to help pack and own less so you can focus your energy on the experiences that matter most. Unbound Merino's promise is freedom through simplicity.

While working in executive communications at a Fortune 500 company, Douglass Hatcher was asked to provide storytelling training. He was happy to do that, but…storytelling? His journey to business storytelling really began more as a skeptic's venture. But over the last few years, skepticism has given way to evangelism and an uncertain journey has become a wonderful adventure. Douglass co-founded communicate4IMPACT (C4I) after a long career as a speechwriter to politicians and captains of industry. While he's always believed in the power of words to drive change, it wasn't until a few years ago that he began to see the power of storytelling to drive competitive advantage and brand differentiation, especially in business. It was during Douglass's time at a Fortune 500 company that he began to see the role of storytelling in making products and services matter to the audiences you want to reach. He had an opportunity to train hundreds of employees as part of a global workforce in the art and science of business storytelling. Before co-founding C4I, Douglass led thought leadership, executive communications, and storytelling at Mastercard in Purchase, New York. Prior to Mastercard, he spent two decades in Washington, DC, where he worked on Capitol Hill in senior positions in both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. Early in his career, Douglass was the speechwriter for the CEO and Chairman of the Board for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting which helps fund PBS and NPR. Immediately prior to Mastercard, he was senior advisor and speechwriter to U.S. Senator Olympia Snowe of Maine.
