Registration is now open for our Executive Roundtable on March 30, when I’ll interview Skullcandy CEO Rick Alden and President Jeremy Andrus in front of a live audience.

This week is members-only registration for members of our Shop-eat-surf Executive Edition. General registration opens to all on March 1.

Jeremy AndrusSkullcandy started in 2003 and reached $125 million in revenue in 2009, with projections for a 30% – 40% growth in 2010. Alden was named Entrepreneur Magazine’s “Entrepreneur of the Year” in the January 2010 edition.




The company primarily makes and markets headphones sold through action sports and music retail channels, and has branched out to other retail channels and categories.

Rick and his team work with an intensity, focus and sharp vision that stands out in action sports, and that will be one focus of the Roundtable discussion – along with the company’s continued growth against the recessionary headwinds, and how Skullcandy has overcome obstacles during the company’s rapid growth.

It all happens from 8:30 – 11 a.m. at the Shorebreak Hotel in Huntington Beach. We’ll serve breakfast and coffee, and in addition to the formal program, we’ll have plenty of time for informal discussions before and after the session.
