The 5 day long affair ended with a bang, and left our DMC students beaming with pride. (I kid you not, you should've seen our proud faces)
The Closing Ceremony started off with the amazing Mr Damien Cummings, Online Director in the Consumer & SMB team at Dell.
Mr Cummings has had over 15 years of experience in the digital media industry and was a judge for the 2011 Digital Media Awards and the 2009 Asian Marketing Effectiveness Awards. He is a top-ranked speaker on social media.
Next up, we had Mr Julien Courant, Managing Director of dgm Asia who was incredibly funny and engaging!
He talked about the different strategies used to generate online sales and return on investments for clients with the use of social media. It was really refreshing to hear fresh viewpoints about social media.
After the speakers delivered their amazing presentations, we headed out for a short break where everyone could mingle and network with one another.
After the tea break, we headed back in to listen to our very own Mass Media Research team present their research findings on the Impact of Citizen Journalism on You(th).
Soon after they presented their findings, they had a Question-and-Answer segment through the live twitter feed. The audience were all engaged in it and quickly tweeted their doubts away. Best part is, the people who asked the top three most insightful questions during the session were awarded with a Starbucks gift card as well as a thumbdrive!
Finally, the conference ended with an influx of applause (and some wild cheers) by the audience.
I hope everyone enjoyed themselves (we know we did!), and see you next year at the Media and Communication Conference 2013!
