We will socialize Handelskammardagarna. We have the #High5:s ready. See you at the 350 year celebrations of Västsvenska Handelskammaren (#vhk2011) at Svenska Mässan this October 13-14. What do you look forward to most? Any questions you want us to ask?
Oh my God, vilken fest det varit i flera veckor hemma hos oss (och är just nu i mitt kök där barnen dansar runt till tonerna av vinnarlåten Popular). Min favorit kom tvåa, In The Club men vad gör väl det? Många gråa och mörka vinter-vårs-kvällar har förgyllts med glamour, fest och flärd tack vare detta musikfenomen jag älskat sedan barnsben. Då när jag gick i lågstadiet använde jag de kanaler som fanns för att maximera njutningen. Kassettbandet laddades och jag spelade in livesändningen i radio för att kunna avnjuta i min walkman. Av inspelningen på videobandspelaren lärde jag mig danserna och de coolaste “movesen”. Och slutligen, min uppvisning med kompisarna på lekplatsen, i gungorna, på fredagarnas showtimmar där jag fick leva ut ordentligt.
Min son (6 år) och dotter (2 år) följer i sin mors fan-fotspår. Jag ser glädjen i deras ögon när idolerna sjunger och ser ett musikintresse födas. Jag är också lite nöjd med att min #twitterfråga nådde Carolina Norén som intervjuade vinnaren Eric Saade. Håller du med i hennes och Björn Kellmans analys av festivalen?
Dessutom ser jag att våren i mina rabatter och känner förväntningarna stiga för de kommande jobbveckan med Awoque och tackar Mello 2011 för all ny härlig energi. Njut av söndagen
In a few months time, the World Transplant Games 2011 will take place here in Göteborg, Sweden. Thousands of athletes will compete in olympic-like sports June 17-24. All these people are the proof of one thing – life can begin again. Many, many around the globe have enabled their lives, given them a new chance to explore and breath fresh air. Have you taken a stand on the question of organ donation? (If you live in Sweden go here).
Today, we continue our work trying to do social good, to create buzz and awareness on these questions. We will meet many young and eager students at Chalmers and hear their views on the matter. If you want to join the conversation, please do through the blog or the facebook-page.
Need more inspiration, take a look at these YouTube-clips:
June 17-24 this summer thousands of special athletes will travel to Sweden to compete in the 18th World Transplant Games. Life will be in focus during the games. All the participants have received organ donation(s). The games creates awareness for donor registration and transplant issues globally through their various online channels. One of the most important ones will be the Facebook page.
World Transplant Games selected awoque to provide guidance and support within social media and to connect all online activities under one strategy.
A new year and time to get started again after a peaceful vacation during the holidays. We hope you had a good start to the new year.
We will begin our week by introducing our various client projects. The first one is Swerea IVF AB. Together with project and research manager Clas Mellby, we will explore the hypothesis that social media increases innovation in integrated product and production development. Mellby wants to “try an approach for mercenary companies to initiate a product portfolio. The experience of the project will form the platform for future major research projects.”
The VINNOVA sponsored project will take place 2011 in the Goteborg area. We promise to keep you posted and give you the link to the project blog that we plan at the moment.
Awoque AB is a new kind of social media agency. We believe in “Social Media for Social Good” and that organisations can and should interact with social networks to provide sustainable, profitable and loyal connections, whilst contributing to a social cause.
