London, UK (PRWEB) June 10, 2008 -- Mash ups, measurement and mobile advertising will take centre stage at this year's Online Marketing and Media Show (OMMS) - the only dedicated UK event that brings together experts and suppliers from all aspects of online marketing. Taking place on 24th and 25th June at the Business Design Centre in London, the free event expects to attract over 3,500 visitors' and features 70 plus exhibitors, 40 free workshops, the Google University and a comprehensive conference programme.

The conference programme offers a choice of workshops, panels and case study sessions, presented by leading companies and brand names including; Last.fm, Dell, Lovefilm.com, O2, the Guardian.co.uk and Microsoft. On both days of the event there will be an opening keynote from Mike Nutley, editor-in-chief of New Media Age and OMMS conference producer presenting on the impact of new technologies and communications on the worlds of marketing and advertising. There will also be a free keynote from Dan Cobley, director marketing, UK, Ireland & Benelux, Google.

To spice things up, we're varying the types of sessions on offer. We've joined forces with the Internet Advertising Bureau and Sky to stage a Dragon's Den-style look at new online advertising formats.

Conferences are full of people telling us that the future is about user-generated content, about tagging, mash-ups, about sharing, but not many of them are talking about what they've actually done. This event will showcase the latest tools available to marketers and how they have and can be used.

Mike Nutley, editor-in-chief of New Media Age and OMMS conference producer commented, "To spice things up, we're varying the types of sessions on offer. We've joined forces with the Internet Advertising Bureau and Sky to stage a Dragon's Den-style look at new online advertising formats."

"We've also brought together three leading bloggers to take us through the mistakes that companies have made trying to take advantage of social media. And we've brought back the hugely popular Creative Showcase and invited some of the online advertising industry's most creative minds to show us what's inspired them over the past 12 months, and what they think is going to be shaping the campaigns of the next 12." Nutley added.
