Closing Party 7pm- 1am
By invitation only – so get tweeting (@smwldn) and blogging about Social Media Week London to help get on the list.
* The idea of OpenShop was first started for Internet Week Europe in November 2010 by Nick Farnhill. It’s an initiative that helps students, tutors and colleges get a glimpse into what working life is like within creatively driven companies and offer some inspiration that may help make the decision about what to do for a future career.
UPDATE:
We are also running our Tweet of the Week competition – where the best application via tweet (with hashtag #LBiSMW) will be rewarded with a summer placement in our Social Media team. It starts on Monday, so get your thinking caps on. More details can be found here.
