Aggie Kobrin
Aggie Kobrin is founder and director of CEC Global Events, a vibrant event planning company that has produced extraordinary results for her global clients. An entrepreneur and consummate networker with more than fifteen years experience in the conference and event management industry, and many more spent developing business ventures. Whether she's designing or coordinating an event, consulting to or distributing an independent film, finding talent or creating a new business enterprise, her business philosophy has been to act with integrity and honesty. A regular in media and a contributing author to several books, her clients and network include organizations, corporations, nonprofits and women's groups, that range from Fortune 500 companies to small local and not-for-profit groups. She has been a creative force on several independent transformational films and TV shows that involved planning the launch of events including the red carpet releases, talent acquisition, film and book distribution. Her work in film and television includes several independent transformational films and reality TV shows.
As an entrepreneur, Aggie recognized very early that the way to succeed is by harnessing the talents of others and by helping one another succeed. Understanding the benefits of media and social media and appreciating the skills of people in areas such as search engine optimization, blogging, communicating is the gateway to business success. You can't do it all yourself, so you work with the best. There's plenty to go around for all of us. Sharing the knowledge with good intentions is empowering.
Crowdfunding: Aggie was instrumental in starting and managing three crowdfunding platforms and still consults with clients who wish to raise money using this new and exciting financing model.
Crowdfunding is based on a micro transaction model, when a large number of people provide a small monetary donation to raise funds needed to complete a particular project. "Believe it or not, if you have an idea or a project, people are willing to help you for very little in return. The generosity of people is astounding. Thousands of people have been given hundreds of thousands of dollars to fulfill their dreams. It's another example of the power of social media and social marketing and it is all about who you know, who you have helped in the past and who will help you today."
"Aggie has terrific drive and savvy which she applies fully to executing great events - put simply, She Makes It Happen and doesn't cave under extreme pressure. Will definitely work with her again." David Knight, Founder & CEO at TERBINE
"Aggie is the bomb! She handled the world premiere of my movie The Compass. It was a HUGE success. She has also consulted me throughout the process of making my film and writing my book. There is no possible way The Compass would have won the numerous awards it has, or become a global movement, without her help. I am grateful."
John Spencer Ellis, CEO of NESTA (National & Sports Trainers Association)

JW Najarian, Founder of Metta Media Group | CREPIG | On Purpose Magazine, Creator US Veteran Group on Linkedin
"Aggie Kobrin is just about the best networker and connector of people I have ever met! If you want to meet anyone, for any reason, she will know how. And her optimism and graciousness can turn a negative situation or person into a positive one. She has the highest integrity personally and professionally".
