Global contacts lead Awoque to a mission to aid with the The Unesco Mobile Learning Week. The conference ”aims to explore mobile learning as a unique and significant contribution to achieving the Education for All (EFA) goals of increasing education access, quality and equality.”

More than 280 000 twitter accounts reached with #mlw2013. A pleased Unesco Programme Specialist in Mobile Learning, Steve Vosloo says:
- I really want to thank you for all your help throughout the Symposium. The social media was very active and well managed – we have had lots of compliments.

Here you can view some of the action in a photo album we provided at the Unesco ICT Facebook>>

In August, Awoque focused its core business to social good campaigns and talks. Yesterday, I had the privlege to moderate a political debate in Kungsbacka. Awoque also started, moderated and fueled the online conversations on Twitter and Facebook. Read more (and use Google Translate) in this blog post about using your right to vote:

If you need help to monitor your brand and/or get social media consulting, please contact me at my new job. I joined the competent Scream Mediabyrå in Göteborg together with Digital Analyst Sarah Johansson from Aitellu on August 6. Together with 54 other Media Advisors, we help our clients get visibility both in traditional and digital media in Sweden.

I look forward to staying in contact on all social media for social good matters. I am still the same happy, energetic person, with more added business strengths creating a better world together with you.

Congratulations to Venture Cup winners in the 2012 competition.

Awoque´s got the mission to create digital exposure for the winners, the competition and entrepreneurship during the Swedish finals. Many companies support events in various forms and place their roll-ups and broschures in the event arena. Traditionally companies support events and show their brands with, roll-ups, banners and broschures in the event arena. Our ambition was to create exposure in the digital meeting arena as well surrounding #VentureCup. We moderated the conversation and crreated content online for fans to follow through Twitter, Bambuser, YouTube and aided the guest bloggers.

With Matter, we produced a live talk show only minutes after the prize ceremony was over broadcasted via Bambuser. Guest in the program was winners Speximo, chairwoman of the jury Deborah Lygonis (Constant Innovation), Robert Odenjung (Västsvenska Handelskammaren), artist Emil Jensen, risk capitalist Susanna Falkengren, and Christina Jaremo who will be in the Regional Manager for Venture Cup West.

And the broadcasts reached our Enterprise Minister in Sweden, Annie Lööf on Twitter:

High5 to Olivia Widén for the professional attitude all day and to the staff at Gothia Towers for helping us set up the mini-studio quickly.

If you are looking for organizations to support to increase your social good account, here are two great examples of passionate involved foundations. They share the same name and do enormous amounts of social good for children.

In the US, the foundation Playing for change is dedicated to the fundamental idea that peace and change are possible through the universal language of music. They most effectively use videos posted on Vimeo and their blog to spread awareness. How can you not smile and want to get involved?

In Sweden, Playing for Change is a business incubator and network for social entrepreneurs that supports social entrepreneurs who improve the lives of children and youth. They actively use social media to spread awareness both on – YouTube, Facebook and through Twitter.

At Västsvenska Handelskammarens meeting on Wednesday, I had the privilege to be inspired by Samhall‘s CEO Monica Lindegård on how companies can utilize their various services to get the work done and at the same time do social good. Samhall looks to become “the leading company in Sweden for development through employment for people with disabilities”. Samhall’s aims to offer personal development for each of the 20 000 staff members as well as the best possible service to their clients.

I strongly believe that actively and honestly utilizing/ working with Corporate Social Responsibility/Social Good will give competitive advantage to one’s opponents, increased employee satisfaction and business values. What actions are your company taking?

I encourage you to interact with Samhall on their Facebook site and check out the TV program “Chefen Undercover” (Undercover Boss) on Swedish TV4 on Monday February 6.

Hello my name is Johanna Olsson and I will do my internship at Awoque this spring as a social media producer. I study to become a webmaster and my passion is food. I am also a certified chef. One of my assignments will be to socialize “Folkmästerskapen i Omelett” on February 24 in Göteborg during the conference “Passion för mat (food)”.

I will also be one of the twenty contestants in the competition. Please share ideas on what to put in the Awoque omelet and follow our work the event here on our blog, in the Awoque Facebook group and on Twitter #awoqueomelett.

Here is a video clip from Swedish TV4 with last year’s winner Jeanna Kanold:

MERRY CHRISTMAS  & A HAPPY NEW YEAR !

I got inspired yesterday. Jonas Bauer, CEO at Vasaloppet, visited the popular breakfast club in Kungsbacka yesterday to tell us the story on why/how a ski race got to be so much for than just a single event. The event inspires thousands of volunteers to get involved, more than 7 000 fans on the Facebook, and a leader who talks strategically and passionately about all events, actions and communication plans. A big High5 from my heart. Go Go!!

We wanted to really do something for young talents and give them a chance to shine. We found some of our fans on Twitter and Facebook. We offered them a chance to share something they are passionate about – social media. They are junior ninjas and ready to go and out visiting clients.

You can meet most of us on Monday at the event Entreprenörs- och Ledarskapsdagen in  Göteborg or get in touch by getsocial@awoque.com

High5!
