Verge - The Ogilvy Digital Summit
Verge Singapore is a one-day event that happens this Friday, May 23 from 9am - 6pm at CHIJMES. There’s a variety of sessions touching a range of topics from mobile marketing to social networking, and I’m hoping to land some blogger invitations from the organizers. Email me if you’re interested in attending.
Highlights of some of the 45-minute sessions:
- 12 TENETS OF DIGIMARKETING - Kent Wertime, President, OgilvyOne Asia Pacific
- CHANGING MEDIA - Panel discussion with folks from the Asia-Pacific offices of Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft
- THE 4 E’S OF MARKETING - Christopher Graves, President & CEO Asia Pacific, Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide
- BLOGGER PERSPECTIVES - Panel discussion with Singapore’s very own Michael Netzley, Vanessa Tan, Walter Lim and Nicholas Khoo
John Bell, who was recently in Singapore for the launch of The Open Room, contributed this Verge post.
Look out for more updates (pictures included) when Verge Singapore goes LIVE this Friday.
