Vancouver Digital Week is 2 months away!
With Heather Armstrong and Maggie Mason – Vancouver Digital Week 2008
Vancouver Digital Week organised by New Media BC is only 2 months away. I attended last year and had an incredible time. Highlights included: getting a photo with Heather Armstrong & Maggie Mason, interviewing Grant McCracken, and watching local luminaries playing Rock Band at the PopVox Awards.
The three events most of interest to me are: Convergence 2009, NextMEDIA Vancouver, and the PopVox Awards.
Convergence 2009 is organised by Cossette West. I was able to interview Sandy Fleischer last year about his expectations for the event. This year should be even better.
A gathering of digital-savvy marketing and communications thought-leaders from across North America sharing ideas on how to stay competitive in the ever-shifting digital landscape. This year we focus on digital branding through social media and why you should integrate it into your marketing strategy…starting now.
NextMEDIA Vancouver is new to the Vancouver Digital Week. I attended their nextMEDIA Banff event last year and expect their keynote and reception to be top-notch and an excellent opportunity for networking. It will be fun to catch up with the nextMEDIA team.
The PopVox Awards are totally fun and entertaining. Can’t wait to see what surprises are planned this year.
Submit your project or nominate a peer (or yourself!) to win prizes and celebrate the diverse achievements of this dynamic sector. After all the votes are in, the winners will be announced at the POPVOX AWARDS Gala on May 13th, 2009.
This year Vancouver Digital Week takes place at the Vancouver Convention Centre. Hope to see you there!

Relevance: Anyone interested in learning more about digital media should be here. I made some real good friends last year and it definitely enhanced my knowledge about new media.
