組圖：40位40歲以下的商界精英
|
20. 維爾?亞當(dāng)斯 ?? 年齡：38 ?? 職務(wù)：董事長(zhǎng) ?? 任職公司：I.am.plus公司（I.am.plus） ????沒錯(cuò)，又名will.i.am的維爾?亞當(dāng)斯是一位著名的音樂明星，也是黑眼豆豆樂隊(duì)（Black Eyed Peas）的主唱。不過，亞當(dāng)斯卻把自己打造成一位社交與技術(shù)顧問，深得大品牌的信任。他曾為可口可樂（Coca-Cola）和英特爾（Intel）等公司提供顧問服務(wù)。他曾與美國(guó)宇航局（NASA）、美國(guó)職業(yè)籃球聯(lián)賽（NBA）、百威英博（Anheuser-Busch InBev）和發(fā)明家狄恩?卡門合作。為了證明自己并不是只會(huì)為別人的創(chuàng)意大把花錢的“大款”發(fā)燒友，他剛剛進(jìn)入麻省理工大學(xué)（MIT）攻讀計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)。他的i.am.plus系列高科技配件首先推出的是iPhone攝像機(jī)鏡頭，還將在2014年推出家用機(jī)器人和智能手表。（當(dāng)然，鏡頭并不暢銷，但這至少證明他的創(chuàng)造力。）雖然亞當(dāng)斯只是一位自我調(diào)適的電子樂歌手，但他或許有望成為娛樂明星揚(yáng)名商界的新榜樣。 |
20. Will Adams ?? Age:38 ?? Title:Chairman ?? Company:I.am.plus ????Yes, the guy you know as will.i.am is a bombastic pop star and the frontman of the Black Eyed Peas, but Adams has established himself as a go-to social and technology consultant big brands trust. He's advised Coca-Cola and Intel. He's teamed up with NASA, the NBA, Anheuser-Busch InBev, and inventor Dean Kamen. He just enrolled at MIT for computer science, proving he's more than another deep-pocketed enthusiast throwing money at other people's ideas. His line of technology accessories, i.am.plus, started with an iPhone camera lens and in 2014 will put out a home robot and a smartwatch. (Sure, the camera wasn't a hit, but it showed he has the ability to create.) Auto-tuned electro-warbler though he is, Adams may prove to be the new model for how pop stars attain business influence. |
