My company, 247Interactive, is a founding sponsor of the Ohio Interactive Awards! We are hosting our inaugural recognition ceremony saluting the top digital and interactive talent in the state beginning at 5:30p, Thursday , April 29, at the Arena Grand Theater.

Awards are being presented in six categories: Advertising, Sectors/Industry, Social Web, Student, Best Integrated Campaign, and Best Use of New Technology. Additionally, awards are being presented for Interactive Agency of the Year and Interactive Marketer of The Year. A panel of judges comprised of marketing industry leaders who work with and represent some of the world’s most recognizable brands and Fortune 500 companies have reviewed more than 35 entries from across the state. Entries were judged on three criteria: strategy, execution and results.

Tim Schigel, CEO of Cincinnati-based ShareThis, the world’s largest sharing network and a market of influence across the web, is the featured speaker of the evening. He will lead a discussion on the current and future trends of online sharing and the social web. 

Our host for the evening will be Johnny DiLoretto, from WSYX ABC 6/Fox 28 Good Day Columbus!

We have worked really hard on this and are expecting a great turnout, and an awesome event. If you haven't got your tickets yet, you can get them here, or at the door.
