Interview with Alex Williams of Corante

Alex Williams is the managing director of Corante Events where he runs on and offline programming. A former journalist, magazine editor and television broadcast anchor, Alex formerly founded DecisionCast, a producer of online events and programming, and is the creator of RSS WinterFest, Outsourcing Conversations, and other innovative and probing programs.

With a masters in journalism, Alex has a qualified perspective on the validity of “citizen media.” Chris and Alex spent a fair amount of time talking about the Pacific Northwest, and how individuals in this area are starting to make things happen. We also get the scoop on Podcast Hotel, taking place at some point this summer in Portland. Chris also shares a handful of Gnomedex feelings with Alex, with both of them now finding themselves fulfilling the “conference director” role.
