Background: iWDMS 2011

The Speaker Series builds on the success of the International Women in Digital Media Summit, which took place October 23-25, 2011, in Stratford, Ontario, featuring Arianna Huffington as the Opening Keynote.

Why Women?

From gaming, to social media, to cross-platform and transmedia storytelling, the digital media landscape is evolving to include the female demographic in key roles as consumers, producers and decision-makers. Through this two-part initiative, the iWDMS aims to explore the expanding roles and impact of women within digital media businesses.
