There is nothing like Boston fans – and there is nothing like Boston fans out in droves on my twitter feed while I watch the Bruins in the NHL playoffs. Some may call my playoff hockey watching habits strange but I know I’m not alone. I don’t like to go out to crowded bars or attend “viewing parties.” I prefer…
Even after almost a month, this whole walking to work thing definitely isn’t getting old. At the beginning of May CHEN moved its office to Boston, and I don’t mean Cambridge or Quincy like some people say when they “work in Boston.” As Chris stated in his last blog about the move, we’re in “Downtown” now. And I honestly don’t…
We’re so pleased to announce that we’re involved with a wonderful fundraiser. Boston PRoud – an evening to raise money for The One Fund Boston, brings together more than 30 Boston-area PR firms to co-host the event, which will take place on Wednesday, May 29 at the Back Bay Social Club from 5:00-8:00. It promises to be a tremendous evening…
It has been an especially busy stretch for us at CHEN PR. That’s really saying something given our usual schedules. We’re moving it on over – to our new digs in Boston. By this evening, we’ll be unpacking our stuff in our new digs. We’ve affectionately nicknamed our home base The Penthouse at 71Summer, since it’s the top floor of…
Given the events of last week, it’s safe to say that not only Boston, MA and New England were affected by the marathon bombings, but the entire nation seemed to be overtaken by this sequence of events. I live in Boston but was not in the area at the time of the event – I was visiting family and friends…

…and they sit down next to a technologist and a venture capitalist. Sounds like an interesting group right? Well that’s exactly the group I saw on Wednesday night at the MIT Enterprise Forum of Cambridge Innovation Series on customer privacy and trust in innovation – and the combination of professions made for some pretty interesting conversation. The panel was headed…
Everyday we’re logging onto social media across multiple devices, accessing our email on smartphones, and shopping on our tablets. I could go on and on with this list because we’re constantly transferring data. But have you ever asked yourself, what happens to all that data? Where does it go? There are data sharks everywhere and we’re seeing story after story…
New experience time again. You may remember not too long ago I got a taste of my own PR medicine when I became an interview subject – and ultimately a quoted source – on a security breach. To be honest, it was fun – at least for me. You’ll notice I haven’t been quoted since. Maybe my phone is broken…
Even though here in Boston we were hit with yet another snowstorm yesterday, that doesn’t change the fact that today is the first day of Spring and soon (well, hopefully soon), The snow will all melt away, the weather will warm up and we will see green once again. This morning I was mulling over all the things I’m excited to do…
