Monday, February 10Blake IrvingCEO of GoDaddy

Blake Irving is the CEO and Board Director of GoDaddy, the world’s largest domain name provider and web host. Under Mr. Irving’s direction, the company has sharpened its focus on helping small businesses to grow and thrive online—from digital presence and marketing to commerce, back-office administration and peer/community support.

Prior to GoDaddy, Mr. Irving was EVP and Chief Product Officer at Yahoo!, a role in which he grew active users from 550 million to nearly one billion users—positioning them to surpass Google and Facebook as the world’s most popular online destination.

Before Yahoo!, Mr. Irving spent 15 years at Microsoft in various senior roles, most recently as Corporate Vice President of the Windows Live Platform where he was responsible for research, development and operations of Microsoft’s global online services. While at Microsoft, Mr. Irving developed and grew MSN Messenger into the world’s most successful instant messaging platform with more than 70% global share, re-architected and grew Hotmail to 270 million users worldwide, and deployed their first billion dollar advertising system, adExpert.

Mr. Irving started his career in 1981 at Xerox. He has been at the forefront of innovation, having been involved in numerous products and services that are now staples of the internet, including typography, communications on the personal computer, subscription services and back-end online advertising. From 2009 to 2010, he was a professor in the MBA program at Pepperdine University. Mr. Irving is a graduate of San Diego State and received an MBA degree from Pepperdine University. He currently resides in San Luis Obispo, CA.

Tuesday, February 11Michael LewisJournalist & Best-Selling Author of Liar’s Poker, Moneyball and The Blind Side

Mr. Lewis is a columnist for Bloomberg News and a contributing writer to Vanity Fair. His articles have also appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, Gourmet, Slate, Sports Illustrated, Foreign Affairs, and Poetry Magazine. He has served as editor and columnist for the British weekly The Spectator and as senior editor and campaign correspondent for The New Republic. He has filmed and narrated short pieces for ABC-TV’s “Nightline”; created and presented a four part documentary on the social consequences of the internet for the British Broadcasting Corporation; and recorded stories for the American public radio show, This American Life.

Michael Lewis has published many books on various subjects, all but one of them New York Times best sellers. His most recent works are The Big Short and Boomerang, narratives set in the global financial crisis. The Blind Side, published in 2006, tells the story of Michael Oher, a poor, illiterate African-American kid living on the streets of Memphis whose life is transformed after he is adopted by white Evangelical Christians. Before that, he wrote Moneyball, a book ostensibly about baseball but also about the way markets value people. Both of his books about sports became Academy Award nominated films. His other works include The New New Thing, about Silicon Valley during the Internet boom; Coach, about the transformative powers of his own high school baseball coach; Losers, about the 1996 Presidential campaign; and Liar’s Poker, a Wall Street story based in part on his own experience working as a bond salesman for Salomon Brothers.

Mr. Lewis grew up in New Orleans and remains deeply interested and involved in the city. He holds a bachelor’s degree in art history from Princeton and a master’s degree in economics from the London School of Economics.
