LiveWorld Chairman and CEO Peter Friedman has built an organization that works to combine services and software to scale customer conversations and human interactions that establish deeper relationships with brands. “At LiveWorld, we assist companies in creating, deploying, and scaling a socialized view of their brands—to be profoundly successful in social, it has to be a sharing experience with a brand and its customers.
