I was honored last
night to accept a $2000 scholarship award from the DFWIMA (Dallas-Ft Worth
Interactive Marketing Association) as part of their 2011 Excellence in
Interactive Marketing awards. The EIMA awards dinner was held Tuesday, April
19th at the Dallas Museum of Art. It was a fun, engaging event put on by a
wonderful group of interactive marketing and advertising professionals.
The scholarship
program is new to the DFWIMA this year. The $10,000 award fund was established
by DFWIMA members to support the study of interactive marketing at DFW area
universities. Outstanding students were recognized from Southern Methodist
University (that's me!), Texas Christian University, University of Texas at
Arlington, University of Texas at Dallas, and the University of North Texas.
Many thanks to the DFWIMA for this scholarship and to the SMU faculty for their
nomination.
The evening's industry
awards recognized outstanding work in the field of interactive marketing in
2010. Click Here, Inc. won the "Best of Show" award for its Go RVing
campaign, and also took home the most awards. The reception featured
caricature artists, an open bar, and live music by a jazz trio. Following
the dinner and awards presentation, an after party sponsored by Meebo was held
at Seventeen Seventeen restaurant.
