What's new?

It may be cold outside, but things are really hotting up in the world of Digital Publishing. We've handpicked a selection of conferences, masterclasses and summits that cover everything from mobile advertising to consumer engagement, and a lot more in between.

Page Lizard attended the PPA's Independent Publisher conference and awards last Friday. This event celebrated the achievements of independent publishers, and we were proud to be supporters of the vital contributions these publishers make.

This year's event was completely sold out. We managed to bag ourselves some great seats (right at the back) for the awards, and watched as the winners rolled up and over the stage all afternoon long. There were some great snaps taken throughout the day which you can see in the gallery below, or on the PPA's live photo stream.

As the nights draw in, most of us would rather be at home snuggled up with a glass of mulled wine and the latest episode of The Apprentice. What could tempt you out of those comfy Fair Isle jumpers more than a good Digital Publishing event? Here are our pick of the top 8 unmissable events this winter.

Each year Memcom hosts a conference that welcomes around 200 delegates from membership organisations across the UK. This is then followed by a sit down lunch and awards ceremony.

Despite Page Lizard not being a membership organisation ourselves, we still like to lend a helping claw to those who need it. Our aim at Memcom 2014 was to reach out to membership organisations who are delving into their bright digital publishing future head first but aren't actually sure how to engage, grow and retain their audiences.
