What a wild ride it has been - from a 2 months long process to having a successful DigiDay at TELUS.
Background: DigiDay is meant to be a fun, interactive, all-day session designed to keep TELUS and our agency partners ahead of the curve on everything digital media and beyond. This year we invited our friends from Reddit, Inc., Google, Samsung Ads, Uber Advertising, and Meta to share their latest solutions to TELUS' biggest marketing challenges, highlight key industry trends, and peek into what the future has in store all around the theme "Creative is the new performance" 🦩🎨📈
As this was TELUS' 3rd year (2nd in Toronto) hosting DigiDay, for the first time I had the opportunity to lead the event planning committee in Toronto and can only summarize it by saying that each and everyone of our guests, agency partners and vendors, and most importantly our volunteers played a pivotal role in the success of DigiDay. 🙌
Thank you to Christian Bautista, Ismael Fofana, Jane Lam, Melisa Raptopulos, Iuri Castelo, Susan Charles, Stephanie Moraes, Derek Fung, Mike Kwon, Ben Gross, Juan Gobbi, Peter Bolt for all your support and amazing insights that not only allowed all of us to refresh our minds on how to best move forward but also providing actionable next steps on how to take our brands to the next level. 🚀
Thank you to Vanessa Saw for being my rock from the very beginning.💪
Thank you to Rob Daintree for trusting me throughout this process.
Thank you to Vassilis K. Douros for not also trusting me to lead this event but also pushing me and believing in me. It's only been 3 months working with you but really has felt like we've been working together for years (and that's a good thing)👏. Looking forward to more of your mentorship!
And last, a group of individuals to whom absolutely none of this would have happened if I couldn't lean on y'alls support, guidance, and patience: Christine Baraniuk, Niki T., Natasha Milne, Tanya Jurkovich, Stephanie Wong, Jonathan Chan, Tara Higgins Sydney Mai (Popescu) thank you all for everything that you did. I'm glad I had the chance to get to know you all a little bit more and I really, really hope we get to work together again soon.💜
Here to many more DigiDays!
