Blogging and New Media event in Delhi

bloggers meet and PR professionalsAs a PR professional, would you be interested in understanding a little more of what is happening on the blogging and new media landscape? Would you like to talk to this community face to face?

The Indian blogging and new media landscape has been highly fragmented so far, with little information available on who is doing what. In an effort to bring this community under one roof, the recently floated Delhi Blog and New Media Society is organizing a meeting of all stakeholders in New Delhi on Saturday, January 12, 2008. The event is sponsored and supported by 20:20 Media and Microsoft.

The expected audience will include professional/part time/fun bloggers, fringe/yet-to-start bloggers, PR/corp communication professionals, blog/ new media/ social media consultants and service providers and mainstream media. The event is open to all, and there is no registration fee.

When & Where: Saturday, January 12, 12:30 p.m. onwards at 31, Shivji Marg, Westend Greens Farms (near Radisson Hotel), New Delhi.
