BlueBird Social Zone
The BlueBird Social Zone was the perfect place to connect, recharge and socialize at #SIA13. During the Show, this spot was designed for attendees to launch their social marketing messages and press updates live from the Show Floor at our Wi-Fi connected BlueBird Social Zone. New for 2013 was an entire educational seminar series dedicated to social media with topics including; social media success stories, marketing panel discussions with industry professionals, inside scoop with bloggers and more.
BlueBird Social Zone, sponsored by TransWorld Media and presented by Votigo.
