Director, MLOVE Confestival
Peter is passionate about creating environments and formats that help participants get the most out of an event. Part of that is choosing the right venue. Peter has staged events in the Natural Historical Society and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, New York, the Villa di Medici in Rome, the Townhall in Stockholm and, most recently, the Emirates football stadium in London (M-Football), to name a few.
Peter is interested in the convergence of art, science and technology, particularly the impact of technology and mobile on society. He also believes in the importance of bringing together leading thinkers from different disciplines to develop new ideas, businesses and methodologies, in a stimulating but informal atmosphere.
Peter was involved in producing YPO events at a young age. He went on to produce independent films (including a student-Oscar winning short), before developing and co-producing the Rising Tide Summit series with Silicon Alley Reporter (likened to “a TED of the East Coast” by the New York Times), the DisinfoCon2000 as well as LOHAS 8 sustainability conference, the Caboom design festival and Invisible College (prompting the LA Times to call him a “pop culture solutions provider) in Los Angeles. He also spent 4 years as Head of Business Development at mobile commerce start-up, mshopper. Peter has a B.A. from Yale.
