OSLO Norway — HSMAI Chapter Norway’s breakfast meeting on social media last Tuesday was a success spurring members and other attendants as well as the Norwegian chapter itself to explore the Web 2.0 possibilities.
The 45 attendants were met with fresh coffee and croissant outside the auditorium of VG (Norway’s largest daily newspaper) at eight o’clock before the immensely inspiring lecture given by Sermo Consulting’s Ingeborg Volan who for more than an hour gave numerous concrete examples of successful corporate use of the social media after an in-depth introduction.
“You simply can’t help feeling happy and inspired by someone able to instigate enthusiasm in the audience as Ingeborg did during our breakfast meeting” HSMAI Chapter Norway president Ingunn Hofseth says.
And you have to agree. Only hours following the breakfast meeting new twitterers from the meeting popped up on our screen full of praise.
If you don’t have a Twitter profile yourself; hesitate no more. Register here.
The success has led HSMAI Chapter Norway to set up a series of courses on the Internet and social media during the upcoming autumn – with just Ms. Ingeborg Volan.
Here’s a YouTube clip from the event (we’re sorry for the distorted wide-screen format):
