Teen Vogue VP & Publisher Talks the Future of Magazines

At this year’s Her Campus National Intercollegiette Conference, we were fortunate enough to have some amazing keynote speakers. Those of you who were lucky enough to attend will remember just how inspiring they all were and how much you learned from them! However, if you weren’t able to attend the conference, then don’t worry, because you can check out the videos of our incredible keynote speakers on our YouTube channel!

On Sunday, July 28, Jason Wagenheim, Vice President and Publisher of Teen Vogue, was our awesome afternoon keynote speaker!  Jason oversees advertising, marketing, and innovation across all print, digital, social, and mobile platforms for the magazine. In 2012, Jason launched Back-to-School Saturday, a new national retail holiday in August that brings together more than 40 fashion, retail, and beauty brands and includes events and promotions in 45,000 retail stores across all 50 states. He also created Teen Vogue Insider, a mobile platform that allows users to connect with advertisers and editorial in Teen Vogue as well as receive special offers on merchandise.

Before working at Teen Vogue, Jason was the Vice President and Publisher of Glamour and the Publisher of Entertainment Weekly. Jason was the Associate Publisher of Vanity Fair before he worked at EW. Jason was also the Executive Director of the Condé Nast Media Group, where he managed corporate sales and marketing for an incredible 21 magazines, including Vogue, Vanity Fair, GQ, Glamour, and The New Yorker.

Watch Jason’s incredible (and hilarious!) speech below, where talks about “Magazines 3.0” and the development of the magazine industry, the progress of his incredible career, and the impact of technology and events on the magazine industry.

 
Lauren is the President/Editor-in-Chief of Her Campus Exeter, as well as the Manager of UK Expansion and a National Writer for HerCampus.com. While she has worked with Her Campus Exeter it has achieved Pink Chapter Level status and has grown to its current status as one of the most successful chapters internationally. She's determined to grow Her Campus in the UK this year and so is looking foward to working on increasing the number of HC UK chapters and to helping the established chapters improve and develop. This summer she was lucky enough to intern in the Her Campus Head Office in Boston, and had the most amazing time -- any time she can go back, she will! In her spare time Lauren loves to play tennis, catch up with her friends, go for long walks in the Scottish countryside or to watch chick-flicks under her duvet. You can follow her on Twitter and Instagram @laurenhudson25.
Kevin Liu is pleased to find himself as a web development intern at Her Campus. Born a Paulistano and raised in Beijing, he is currently set to graduate Babson College in May 2014, majoring in Business Management with plans to concentrate in Strategy and Information Technology Management. A polyglot, Kevin sees the world as his playground, unhindered by borders or languages. He continually seeks new opportunities to better understand multinational corporations and the role of technology in changing cultures. During the school year he works at Babson as a web intern, a freelance photographer, and as a tutor at the Writing Center. When not in class or at the office, Kevin can usually be found just chilling and enjoying the ride. The ride is carried out on 'The Commie' (his bicycle) and includes theater and all of its delights, cooking, wining and dining, photography, and traveling.
