Communications are rapidly changing. Leading brands and marketers come together in Perth, Australia on 25th February to explore and learn how to best use the real-time web.
To remain competitive organisations are following the consumer and adopting social media such as Twitter, live-blogging, Facebook and Youtube. By integrating real-time tools into a marketing strategy a brand can publish information for the customer as soon as it is available, or needed and so strengthen customer engagement and loyalty.
Best practice is emerging as marketers experiment to find new and relevant ways to interact with their consumers. Media140 Perth creates a platform to share successes and challenges faced by the early-adopters, address the meaning of social media ROI and explore what’s next for marketers and brands on the new real-time frontier.
Founded in February 2009, Media140 is an independent global movement creating unique multimedia conference-style events, to facilitate debate to explore the future of the real-time web and its impact on organisations cross-sector. Following sold out events in London and Sydney we travel to Perth, one of the most geographically isolated cities in the world, to explore new ways of connecting, interacting and engaging with global audiences through the real-time web.
Media140 Perth will include keynote speakers, panel discussions and workshops. The emergence of the real-time web has been influential within Perth businesses as it creates a mode of communication that is interactive, international and most importantly immediate. To be held at the prestigious Perth Town Hall, central to the city’s activity since 1867 and is expected to attract up 360 delegates.
