Cedric de Saint Leger
Cédric de Saint Léger has always found himself at the intersection of technology and media, and loves when the two combine into a new challenge. Perpetually beta-testing and keeping up with the leading edge of technology, Cedric is passionate about going beyond the limits in productive and innovative ways.
His early experience in the media industry taught him what it takes to deliver high-end, demanding web apps within tight schedules, a lesson that came in handy when he took the leap into Big Data and joined Engagement Labs. Cédric now shares and promotes both technical and social media knowledge, bringing his relaxed, “can do” attitude to every job. But while he may be laid back, he’s never afraid to get his hands dirty while mentoring and collaborating with what he calls “his team of geniuses.”

Ed Keller
Ed Keller is CEO and a Director of Engagement Labs. As CEO he has spearheaded the company’s development and commercialization of TotalSocial®, a patent-pending technology solution that combines online social media listening data with offline word-of-mouth tracking to provide marketers with a complete view of consumer conversations about their brands. Together these are proven to be important drivers of sales; offline conversation is an even bigger factor than social media, one that is often overlooked by marketers.
Keller has been called “one of the most recognized names in word of mouth” and the publication of his first book, The Influentials, has been called the “seminal moment in the development of word of mouth.” Keller’s second book, The Face-to Face Book (co-authored with Brad Fay), was named 2013 Best Book in Marketing by the American Marketing Association. Reflecting his industry stature, Keller was elected to the Word of Mouth Marketing Hall of Fame in 2014. He has also been awarded a Great Minds Award from the Advertising Research Foundation, where he was a long-time Board member.
