The International Conference 2010 presents:

New Media is changing our world at an incredible pace. The emergence of digital information and communication technologies has created a new environment which requires companies, institutions and individuals to constantly adapt. Lifestyles are changing and with phones getting smarter, social media applications becoming more influential, and increasing internet penetration, the New Media revolution is only at its beginning. For global businesses and economies it is essential to obtain and communicate information as efficiently as possible. Seldom have decision makers across the globe been forced to change their strategies so rapidly - from in-house operations to customer relations and from financial investors to advertising experts.

However, what exactly is New Media and how do companies deal with the opportunities and threats it encompasses?  In the light of this year’s topic “The Changing Face of Media: A Burden or a Gift?” companies and academics will give you insight on how they perceive New Media. Moreover, see how companies deal with the vast and rapid changes and are challenged to eliminate risks or convert them into an opportunity.

Since New Media is all around us and daily involves not only the business and academic world but also each individual, we encourage you to join us and be part of a value adding day. Enjoy an interactive program and challenge companies and academics with your perspective.

Other Recruitment Activities

Some companies also offer a company lunch, personal interviews, and a recruitment dinner. A company lunch offers you the unique opportunity to get in touch with company representatives, discuss about different topics, address your questions, and inform yourself about career opportunities in a casual and pleasant atmosphere. A company offering this recruitment activity chooses a maximum of 10 students for the company lunch. Interview and recruitment dinners are more formal recruitment activities, for which a very limited amount of students is chosen by the company to either hold formal 20min. interviews or invite the selected students for dinner. Look at the various company profiles in order to see which activities are offerd by which company.
