Aerva to Highlight Customer Engagement Strategies at 2012 Digital Media Summit

With the coming holiday season, major brands must increase customer engagement to stay above the noise. Place-based media offers brands key opportunities to elevate their message even as they build deep relationships with consumers. Sanjay Manandhar, Founder and CEO of Aerva, will offer case studies discussing how brands are connecting with customers on Tuesday, October 16th at the DPAA Digital Media Summit in New York. Aerva will display specific techniques brands can use throughout the event.

Manandhar will join a panel of experts moderated by Wall Street Journal Office Network CEO Jim Harris. With more than a decade of experience connecting brands with consumers through multi-platform engagement, Manandhar offers a unique perspective to the panel. He will focus on how brands can increase customer participation through Twitter, Facebook and photo integration with current branding campaigns.

To highlight the strategies brands can use to engage consumers, Aerva’s technology will display photos and twitter messages from participants at the Summit. Similar to how major brands can engage customers, summit attendees will be able to tweet using #contextmatters or submit photos via mobile devices or on-site photobooth-equipped jukeboxes from TouchTunes Interactive Networks.
