Inspirational message to be presented by the Palladium Alliance International
LUXURY announces the addition of Bruce Jenner, former Olympic athlete and star of E! Networks hit TV show, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," to its line-up of breakfast keynotes. Jenner's presentation, "The Champion Within" will take place on Thursday, June 2 at 7:30 am (PST) and is presented by the Palladium Alliance International.
Jenner will offer inspiration for his belief that everyone has an inner champion that can overcome tremendous obstacles. Making an analogy to the recent recessional adversity many retailers have felt, he will help the audience understand that their toughest competition is their own thinking and personal belief systems. By providing an alternative thought process and acquiring the knowledge and tools to overcome obstacles, Jenner's presentation is both relevant and timely.
Bruce Jenner captivated audiences during the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal after breaking a world record in the decathlon and earning a Gold Medal and the title, "World's Greatest Athlete." His accomplishments catapulted him into the world of corporate endorsements, global media exposure, film and television. In 2007, his television career rose to new heights with the debut of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians." Bruce is also a motivational speaker and serves as an ambassador for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) through the "DRIVE4COPD" campaign.
"Bruce Jenner is an inspiration to so many generations, whether it's through his athletic pursuits in the '70s or as an entrepreneur, actor, author and television personality," said Yancy Weinrich, Industry Vice President, JCK Events. "I think our LUXURY audience will be thrilled to hear from this living legend about reaching deep inside all of us to pull out the champion from within."
"LUXURY is pleased to have the star-power of and insights from Bruce Jenner," said John Tierney, Event Director, LUXURY. "His message complements the Palladium Alliance International message of stepping over adversity and conquering it with solid thinking and strategy. We are grateful for the support of PAI for bringing this important message to LUXURY retailers."
"We are pleased to bring Bruce Jenner to LUXURY to help kick off PAI's largest initiative to date," said John Stark, Chairman of the Palladium Alliance International (PAI). "Bruce Jenner focuses on finding the champion from within. PAI's mission is not unlike Bruce's philosophy. We are committed to raising the awareness of Palladium as an extraordinary precious metal and by helping designers and retailers alike build their businesses through the use and selection of Palladium. The timing is right to re-introduce Palladium and we are going to do it in a big way this fall."
