On Nov. 29 and 30, Toronto’s Design Exchange will host a variety of seminars, panel discussions and workshops as part of the annual nextMEDIA conference in Toronto. Experts and market leaders will speak on media production, mobile tech, social media, funding, online trends and more.
For the second year in a row, DigitalJournal.com will be a media sponsor of the conference and we’ll be reporting from nextMEDIA on both Nov. 29 and 30. We will also be tweeting about what we see and hear at nextMEDIA via our @digitaljournal feed.
Baylea Mahoney, marketing communications coordinator for Achilles Media, the company organizing nextMEDIA 2010, explains why Digital Journal has become an invaluable partner to nextMEDIA. “Emerging technology and ideas are how this industry will grow, and Digital Journal’s commitment to hands-on social reporting gives those new ideas a platform for exposure.”
What coverage should you expect? We’ll be liveblogging the keynote address from Newser.com founder Michael Wolff on the impact of digital media on Monday Nov. 29 at 9:15 a.m. ET.

On Nov. 30, DigitalJournal.com will also liveblog the one-on-one session with Facebook Canada managing director Jordan Banks. He will talk about how companies can use Facebook to leverage their business.
