iBlog: The 9th Philippine Blogging Summit

Hello everyone. We are now gearing up for iBlog9: the 9th Philippine Blogging Summit (#iblog9). In this regard, we would like to invite interested speakers to submit a topic proposal for consideration on or before April 15, 2013.

iBlog9 will take place on May 31 and June 1 at Malcolm Theater, College of Law, U.P. Diliman, Quezon City.

The first day will focus on Blogging for Business and Advocacies (entrepreneurs, corporations, non-government organizations, and similar entities). We prefer to receive proposals on topics that can help businesses and organizations better understand how they can tap blogs as a marketing and promotional tool, and how to work effectively with bloggers to achieve that purpose.

The second day will focus on topics of interest for Bloggers in general, such as blogging must-know, social media, blogging policies, taking blogs to the next level, among others. We are also interested in hearing experience of bloggers from different parts of the country.

Submit your topic proposal on or before April 15, 2013. The approved topics and speakers for the summit will be posted before the end of April as we open for registration.

Thank you.
