Digital Bites is a digital marketing event designed to be a little bit different to your average event.
We’ve ditched long presentations in favour of short bite size talks jam-packed with the best digital marketing insight. The event will help make you better at your job, get that promotion or find some new campaign inspiration.
We’re big believers of in person events and think it’s important to host events outside of London. There’s an amazing digital community in the north and we want to make sure there are plenty of opportunities for us to get together, share knowledge and network.
Digital Bites provides the platform to do this.
Speakers from the best brands…
