After a year of planning and preparations, it’s hard to believe that the 2016 Conference is now officially part of the history. But what amazing three days they were. Thank you to all Volunteers, Attendees, Presenters, Program Committee, Partners and everyone who made this year’s conference a huge success!
Let’s do it again! Mark your calendar, the 2017 International Conference on Society Media & Society will be in Toronto on July 28-30, 2017. (CfP will be released in September.)
