Since 1985, Marcus has been helping Fortune 1000 and communications companies develop and enhance their images through a variety of audio programs, personas, and voice branding solutions.

Regional Sales Manager, Utah Scientific |

a manufacturer of switching products for the Broadcast TV market. Prior to this, George spent 11 years with ADC/TYCO. When that company was sold and George lost his job due to a workforce reduction, the Lord spoke to him and told him what was going to happen while attending the NFL luncheon in June, 2016. The pathway to the fulfillment of that prophecy was filled with obstacles, but was fulfilled in approximately one year. In the course of his business career, George has also been involved in starting a company in broadcast media and worked in sales management for companies such as ADC Broadcast and Entertainment Products, JVC, Fortel, and Utah Scientific. |

Hogan Bassey, |
|
Founder & Chief Innovation Officer, LivFul, Inc. |
| |
Growing up a happy child in Nigeria, Hogan dealt with a common problem - malaria. By the time he was 10, Hogan had already suffered through several bouts of the life-threatening disease. Determined to thwart the miserable mosquitoes that delivered the disease to himself and his friends, Hogan gathered a few household products and mixed up a batch of simple, and somewhat effective, homemade mosquito repellent in the family bathtub. His "success" in disease prevention and problem-solving motivated him to create a company that would fight disease, save lives and transform communities around the world. LivFul creates technology that powers products to repel biting insects. STAYTECH™, their patented, plant-based technology works with repellents to make them skin-friendly and more effective than any other repellent. |
