We cannot believe that BDI’s Social Communications & Healthcare: Case Studies and Roundtables are only a few days away! Pixels and Pills will be there covering the event – we’ll have cameras rolling and Sarah ready with the tough questions.
About the Event:
Innovation will be the theme of this year’s conference. We will showcase new case studies from leading healthcare brands that demonstrate how innovation and creativity are the keys to achieving business objectives through social communications. While all the content will be fresh, the conference will maintain BDI’s standard half-day, morning-only format of stimulating case studies and ground breaking roundtable discussions that will be inspiring while opening doors to valuable contacts.
