Social Media Week is unique on a number of levels: It’s the first attempt to host multiple conferences simultaneously using a distributed model. It’s collaborative and co-curated, meaning that the programming and content reflects the needs of the local market, rather than being the prescribed vision of one group of organizers. It’s free to attend and to register events, which results in better curation of the programming, a more targeted audience and less friction in the way people and organizations participate.
