Call for Proposals: 2012 Social Media Summit

Posted on March 14th, 2012 by Admin

Last year's Social Media Summit at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. was a huge success, with more than 375 participants from 38 states and 4 countries.

We're now in the midst of planning for this year's Social Media Summit, which will be part of a full week of social media events at Mayo Clinic. We've identified some great potential presenters and panelists, but we're also putting out a call for proposals so we can have an even stronger Summit program.

The 2012 Social Media Summit will be held on Oct. 16-18 in Rochester, Minn. The program, produced in collaboration with Ragan Communications, will consist of pre-conference workshops on the first day, followed by a three-track conference on the 17th and 18th.  The tracks for this year's event are:

• Social Media, marketing and PR
• Mobile Health Care Communications
• Social Media for Medical Professionals

You can read more details about the week's events here.

If you have an idea for a presentation you could provide or a panel you would like to organize, we would love to consider it.

Whether it's a concrete case study or a compelling conversation topic, summarize your idea in a paragraph or two and provide some biographical background on yourself and any co-presenters or panelists. Be sure to provide contact information, including links to your online social networking profiles.

Then submit your one page proposal via email by March 23, 2012 to the Mayo Clinic Center for Social Media.

We look forward to your ideas!
