Next lunchtime seminar – Mastering your Internet Strategy, Thursday 23 April 2015

Dear communicators,  
We are pleased to announce our next event for 2015:
Lunchtime seminar –  Mastering your Internet Strategy
Today, the Internet is becoming an increasingly central element to every organisation’s communication strategy. Greg Rice and Paolo Valdemarin will help you discover how to optimise your organisation’s Internet strategy and learn about best practices for working with third party developers.
Date: Thursday 23 April 2015
Time: 12h30 to 14h00
Location: The Swiss Press Club, Route de Ferney 106, La Pastorale, 1202 Geneva.
Fee: CHF 20.- per person includes drinks and snacks – payable at the door.

Whether it’s a web site or a web service, a web app or a smartphone app, an intranet or a private social network, you have probably already started incorporating Internet technology into the core of your organisation. Regardless of your activity, sector, size or location, if you haven’t yet, it should clearly be on your agenda. During our session we will explore a number of techniques that help with understanding, sharing and managing small and large Internet software projects, making sure that no resources are wasted and that intellectual properties are carefully developed and protected. Given that most organisations can not afford an in-house IT department, understanding how to create solid and productive relationships with specialised external service providers is becoming a fundamentally important skill.
Places are limited due to the venue size, so please register early for the event.

About the speakers:

Greg Rice has been in the IT industry for 30 years and is the founder of Activate Media, one of the first Internet consultancies in London. Over the years he has been involved in several start-ups, two of which evolved into public companies. He brings a wealth of knowledge to any Internet based endeavour.
Paolo Valdemarin has been helping companies to establish their technology strategy for more than 25 years. He has launched countless internet projects in Europe and the US and is co-founder of “State of the Net“, one of the main Internet conferences in Italy.
