In New York Next Week? Meet the Digital Mission NYC

It's almost time. Business cards are being discovered at the back of stationery cupboards, bags are being packed, presentations are being honed, dry-cleaning is being collected (actually, that reminds me...)

This weekend representatives of the 19 companies selected for this year's Digital Mission to New York will be heading across the pond for a packed week taking understand the US market, networking, briefings, meetings and more.

If you find yourself in New York next week - OK, so it's not likely you've dozed off on another flight and ended up there, you probably know already - the Digital Mission group will be out and about at various events. Why not swing by and say hello:

Digital Mission at Ad:tech NYC

Time: Tue, 2nd Nov 10:00 - 16:00 (Exhibit Hall)
Venue: Stand #1858, Javits Convention Center (map) 

Swing by the Digital Mission stand (#1858) to pick up brochures featuring all of the companies attending the mission. Conveniently located next to the exhibitor's lounge and the Beer Garden, it's an ideal meeting place. Look out for the big Union Jack with the New York taxi bursting through. It should be hard to miss!

If you're looking to meet a company and they're not around, we'll be operating a concierge service and will drop them a line with your details.

If you're not in town, feel free to experience the mission through us vicariously on Twitter (@digitalmission), Flickr group and we'll endeavour to blog as much as connectivity allows.

The next Digital Mission will be announced shortly, so keep your eyes peeled for news. A great way to hear about missions and other overseas and local opportunities is through the free Digital Mission newsletter (subscribe here).
