The West of Ireland’s first Digital Summit was announced last night at an event in Galway city.

Sponsored by Blacknight, the OMiG Digital Summit builds on the success of the ‘Online Marketing in Galway’ monthly meetups which have grown in popularity over the past couple of years.

The Digital Summit is designed to keep to the same volunteer ethos as the monthly events, while providing more space and time for engagement. It will be held in the Ardilaun Hotel, Galway, on 29 January 2015. Tickets go on sale today starting at a nominal €5.

Organiser Marisa Burke Keogh explained that the price is designed to reflect the non-profit nature of the organisation and to encourage as wide a participation as possible. She said that the event was aimed to bring thought leaders to Galway “discuss, debate and evaluate”.

Speakers confirmed so far include:

In addition to the panel discussion, there are a limited number of exhibition spaces available.

Commenting on Blacknight’s sponsorship, CEO Michele Neylon said it was a great opportunity to encourage Irish online business.

The Internet is about empowering business to find markets at home and abroad. Blacknight is delighted to support the OMiG Digital Summit.
