MELBOURNE, Wednesday, 29th October 2009 – Founder and CEO of Kogan Technologies, Ruslan Kogan, will headline discussions on the future of the digital electronics industry when he speaks at the Digital Lifestyle Show, held at the Royal Exhibition Hall in Melbourne this Friday October 30.
Kogan, never one to shy away from controversy in his efforts to take on the big brands, will begin his talk at 1:15pm with a discussion around online versus conventional retail sales models and the future of audio visual and digital entertainment technology – specifically, LCD and LED TVs.
Recently making his first appearance in BRW’s 2009 Fast Starters and Young Rich lists, the 26 year old entrepreneur will provide insights into how Kogan Technologies rose from an eBay store to become a multi-million dollar online company that is now in the process of expanding to overseas markets. A key to the success of Kogan Technologies has been its ability to beat out big brands – a challenge Ruslan personally revels in.
Kogan Technologies is a sponsor of the Media Lounge at the 2009 Digital Lifestyle Show and will give away one Kogan 42” inch Full HD LCD TV to a general admission visitor.
Details on how to win a Kogan TV can be found in the Digital Lifestyle Magazine – available at the show.
Ruslan will stream his presentation live from 1:15pm tomorrow. To view the presentation, keep an eye out for a link on the Kogan Twitter feed, @KoganTech, or contact me for the link.
Kogan is a wholly-owned Australian company established in 2006 by entrepreneur Ruslan Kogan. Seeking a better deal on a big screen LCD television, Mr Kogan sourced units direct from Chinese manufacturers – the same manufacturers for some of biggest names in the consumer electronics industry. In the process, Mr Kogan developed a unique business model that passes the savings of dealing direct with the manufacturers onto Australian consumers.
Ruslan Kogan regularly travels to China to be involved in the design process of all of his products, and is constantly testing new products to ensure their quality. Kogan’s unique blend of quality technology and value for money offers price-conscious Australian technology consumers a real choice.
