About Online Tuesday
Online Tuesday has its beginning in Amsterdam, where it started in 2010. It is an event that takes place every second Tuesday of the month in Amsterdam. During this event, which is attended by 150-250 people, a specific digital marketing topic is discussed. The goal of Online Tuesday is to share not only practical experience - for example in the form of case studies - but also visionary ideas about the future of digital advertising. In South Africa the event will take place on a quarterly basis and is organised by it's founding partners DQ&A Media Group, Initiate International and Memeburn.
