New Student-Level AWNY Membership 

New quarterly webinars and conference on Thursday, November 20 and

Dear Educator,

We are pleased to confirm that on November 20 - 21, 2014, Advertising Women of New York (AWNY) will hold its 58th Annual Advertising Career Conference. We are also thrilled to share that we have added a new level of membership especially for college students which is being included for all conference attendees. Through this new program, we are not only offering our fall conference in November, but we will give them year-round access by hosting quarterly webinars leading up to and following the ACC. As we kick off our 58th season, your students will benefit from the following features:
  • On September 24th and then again on October 15th, AWNY will host its first two webinars for AWNY-Student members called "Programmatic Advertising 101", which will reveal the inner workings of the rapidly evolving technology supporting the advertising marketplace. Three more webinars will be announced throughout the school year.
  • On the evening of November 20th, AWNY will host its first Mix and Mingle Networking and Career Fair for conference attendees. Students will not only meet executives in our industry, but will be connected to sponsor companies who want to share what it is like to be an employee in their respective fields.
  • Hosted in a new midtown location, Friday's conference will begin with remarks from AWNY's keynote speaker,  Stephanie Fierman, Global Chief Marketing Officer at MediaCom and long-term AWNY member.
  • And as in past years, your students will enjoy a broad array of workshops, can have their resumes / portfolios reviewed over lunch and will close the conference by visiting  major New York advertising agencies, media, and tech companies on Friday afternoon.
  • For the first time, AWNY is proud to announce our ACC App for all conference attendees, where you can plan review the event agenda, speaker and sponsors, as well as connect with other attendees before, during and after the event. 

We urge you to review the conference overview within our digital packet, share with your students, and registerOnce they register, we will send information on the first webinar and a link to download the App.

We look forward to seeing you in November.
