The award ceremony for the Bord Gáis Energy Social Media Awards 2011 was held on Thursday 25th May at the Mansion House in Dublin. We were a finalist in the App Category and the competition was tough.
Congratulations to all those who were finalists and winners on the night. The full list of winners and photos of the evening are on the following link http://socialmediaawards.com/2011/05/2011-bord-gais-energy-social-media-awards-winners/
We were disappointed that we were unable to attend this event as it would have been a great chance to both meet and network with those involved with social media and in particular with the marketing of an app.
The reason for our absence was that our son had his graduation on the evening, he received a sports award on the night in recognition of his International Achievement in his sport of martial arts.
