Social Now is…

Social Now is not an easy conference to explain because of its unique format and because a large part of its worth comes from the richness of the conversations. That is due to the diversity of participants, the format (again!) and the time allocated to facilitated and ad-hoc networking.

We decided to ask participants of this year’s edition to describe Social Now. Here is what they had to say on their feedback forms.

“A must see for anyone in digital leadership.” (Lee Bryant – PostShift, Portugal)

• “Great opportunity to stop and think.”
• “Different but interesting.”
• “Go attend for sure.” (participant from Bridgestone, Belgium)
• “Very interesting and innovative event which covers topics which are very current and relevant for organisations.” (ATEC, Portugal)

• “An event where you can get an unbiased view of the different possibilities of social tools for your workplace.” (OrangeTrail, Netherlands)
• “Practical workshoppy gathering with ample time to speak with experts and tool vendors.” (Farfetch, Portugal)

Participants embraced the Lego® Serious Play® challenge set by Rita Oliveira Pelica to explore new approached to work at Cablinc, Social Now’s fictitious company
