This year's much anticipated #RethinkMedia conference will be taking place within Parkside Mediahouse on 18 March 2015.
Organised by Birmingham City University, #RethinkMedia is now in its fourth year and is part of the Birmingham Digital Festival 2015. Visitors can expect to gain useful tips from industry professionals on how to best utilise social media and digital content for their business or organisation.
Joining the discussions and debates this year are key figures including Raphy Rivera - Director of BBC Future Media; Frank Golding - former Director at Google, and Jodie Cook - Managing Director of JC Social Media, a specialist social media agency based in Birmingham, along with many more influential people.
MA student Ben White was among the Future Media team that blogged live during last year's conference. He commented:
"Rethink Media offered a great opportunity to discuss and debate with like-minded individuals who value the importance of digital media. Through discussion groups and networking, I was able to find out about various digital projects both locally and nationally that have great potential."
