I look forward to meeting you there for this social event. Meet like minded-people and talk about Digital Asset Management (DAM). Join the DAM Community in New York City. Ask some DAM questions. Get some DAM answers. Buy a drink. Have some DAM fun. Meet DAM professionals from all over the US and abroad.

This involves:

  • DAM Professionals
  • People aspiring to become DAM Professionals
  • People interested in DAM
  • Especially people who were volunteered to be involved in DAM (there are a lot of you, I know)

DAM DC is organized by Henrik de Gyor (the blogger writing this post) and David Lipsey. Both are are passionate about DAM.

DAM DC is about:

  • Meeting in person (networking)
  • Having fun
  • Talking and sharing ideas with like-minded people involved in DAM

We want to know what you want to hear about. Don’t be shy. You are not alone in the world of Digital Asset Management.  You are welcome in the DAM Community. Join. Talk. Share. Be inspired.

I try to visit all of these DAM Meetup groups personally, just to meet others interested in DAM.

So what are you waiting for? Join a DAM Meetup group near you, even if you just come a few times a year.

If you don’t have a DAM Meetup group near you, but you know of other DAM Community members in your area, create your own DAM Meetup group in your area.  If we can create a DAM Meetup, you can too.

On November 15 and 16, the DAM LA 2010 Conference will take place at the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel in Hollywood, California.

This is the West Coast DAM Conference complete with:

During DAM LA 2010, I will be presenting…

From pre-DAM to workflows with DAM: Identifying your use cases

In the initial research of Digital Asset Management solutions for your organization, pre-DAM use cases are analysed to help decide on the best DAM solution for your organization’s business needs. This is not simply management’s need, but the potential DAM users’ needs with all their real world workflows. We will walk through how to do this from A to Z, including commonly forgotten parts of the workflow.

Of course, if you are reading this blog, you can save $100 by registering for DAM LA 2010 Conference by using the discount code DAMBLOG.

You can also save on the hotel reservations with a special discounted room rate by requesting the group rate for the Henry Stewart Events or simply book the hotel online.
