Get AmbITion! Communicate, collaborate, create and celebrate getting digital in the arts.

  1. Eventcasting: now available on demand!

    On 30th November, we eventcast the Arts Marketing Association Digital Marketing Day!

    Onliners were able to experience live Keynotes Jim Richardon of Sumo Design and John McGrath of National Theatre Wales via AmbITion’s interactive eventcasting.

    You can watch the eventcasts still, available on demand here.

  2. AmbITion Update!

    ambitionukIts been a while since the AmbITion roadshows, but we wanted to get in touch to officially say “goodbye” to AmbITion England and let you know of the final AmbITion England event - an AmbITion webcast of some of the keynotes from AMA’s Digital Marketing Day on 30th November 2009, starting online at 11am. This will be the last event, for now, that AmbITion is involved with in England.

    We also wanted to officially say “hello” to you as AmbITion Scotland begins!!

    If you’d like to watch the final AmbITion event, which is also the first event of AmbITion Scotland; and continue learning and networking with AmbITion: then do join the new national getambition online social network: http://getambition.ning.com. Christian Payne aka @documentally is the Digital Doctor in the forum there, and Erin Maguire, CJ Lyon and myself are all still around to network and share with!

    At the AMA Digital Marketing event on 30th November we will be live streaming keynote presentations by:

    11.15am - Jim Richardson, Managing Director, SUMO Design
    &
    14.30pm - John McGrath, Artistic Director of National Theatre Wales

    (Please note we will not be streaming DK’s presentation).

    We will be webcasting all the future AmbITion Scotland events from January 2010 - March 2011, and would love for you to be able to benefit, so make sure you’re on the new network! There are regional groups on the new national network that you can join to keep regional discussions going. (If you’ve been online recently to your regional social networks, set up after the roadshows, you’ll know that they will be shutting down soon: this is because the AmbITion project is ending in England; because they were set up to reflect Arts Council England regions that now have changed; and because all of you voted for a national getambition network!)

    Finally, do keep visiting http://getambition.com, as we’re adding new resources, videos and blogs on digital development here all the time. Both websites will be run by AmbITion Scotland from 1st December.

    Please do keep up your digital development journeys - we’re excited about the online opportunities you will still benefit from because of AmbITion Scotland!

    All the best,
    Hannah.
