The theme of the 6th event is “Building and Managing Online Audiences” We’re hoping for enthusiastic debate and discussion around these key strategic issues:

• How do social channels excel in “shorten the distance between creator and consumer.”
• How important is the content when building communities?
• When you have a huge community, how do you manage it? Do you employ people?
• Is there a particular pull for the competitive nature of gaming communities?
• Is anonymity ever an issue? 
• Why are games platforms “socialising”?
• What kind of content is attractive to communities? Is there a place for all types of content?
• What do communities find engaging?
• How powerful are social media communities?  Can they change the world?

There will be short presentations, a question and answer forum from the live audience and the Twitter stream. There will also be special interactive opportunities on the night and a very special door prize.

This event is in partnership with XBox 360, and is at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) University Hall. Doors open at 6.30pm for sponsored drinks/refreshments before the 7.15 pm start.  No alcohol is permitted within the Hall once the event starts.
