Ponce City Market will host a panel discussion that explores how industry leaders and innovators are redefining public relations through a new lens. “PR Rimagined: Mastering Storytelling Through Disruption” is slated for Tuesday, Nov. 13, 2018 at Ponce City Market’s 8th floor suite #8500.
PR Reimagined: Mastering Storytelling Through Disruption
While the foundation of PR remains the same, the way professionals use mediums (such as Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality and Immersive technology) to create a share of voice is constantly changing. PR Reimagined brings together sought-after thought leaders from various industries to shed light on new and inventive practices that any PR professional can utilize in their role.
With this iteration of PR Reimagined: Mastering Storytelling Through Disruption, Media Frenzy Global seeks to challenge our industry which at times, is slow to change.
In this era of hyper-communication, agencies are challenged with helping companies amplify their voice amidst the noise of thousands of blogs, articles and online content created every day. Brands can no longer depend on a “one-size fits all” content strategy to satisfy their target audiences and now’s the time when this concept of static content and storytelling will change forever.

There are many great relationships to look up to in Atlanta, but the city’s first couple is Gucci Mane and Keyshia Ka’oir: The Wopsters.
Photo credit: Instagram If you’ve been keeping up with entertainment, you know that Atlanta, East Atlanta, specifically, has its own Brad and Angelina. Only this couple features a successful entrepreneur, Keyshia Ka’oir, and famous rapper Gucci Mane.
The Wopsters welcome baby Ice Davis to the world and Atlanta.
The couple made it official on Tuesday Oct. 17, 2017 in a televised affair at the Four Seasons Hotel in Miami, Florida.
Photo credit: Instagram Ka’ oir sells multiple products under her beauty line, including the Ka’oir Waist Eraser, which she credits for helping her slim down while maintaining her curves.
While Ka’oir’s business saavy is considerable, she’s been getting major props for maintaining the clean-living which has allowed Gucci Mane to stay svelte after losing 50 pounds in prison.
Jailed on a parole violation, Gucci Mane — real name Radric Davis — was supposed to serve 39 months, with a release date of March 2017. But he shocked fans last year when the much-thinner rapper debuted in Snapchat videos at his mansion he shares with Ka’oir.
Speaking to The Fader magazine, Ka’oir said that his social media debut was strategic, and everything happened the way she planned.
“When we got to Atlanta, we got off the plane on the runway and we had a private service that took us to our home. Then when we got home, that’s when I started posting on Snapchat. That was all my plan,” she was quoted as saying.
The couple can be seen at various Atlanta events, from Atlanta Hawks basketball games to private parties. Are they Atlanta’s first couple?
