WYNNEWOOD, PA, November 04, 2012 (Press-News.org) The Phorum 2012 website, http://www.phorumphilly.com, has been honored with a silver award in the 2012 International Davey Awards competition. Philadelphia website design firm Hollister Creative designed the site for the first annual Phorum emerging technologies conference, which educates business and IT executives on the practical application of new technologies.
The Phorum conference is a program of the Greater Philadelphia Alliance for Capital and Technologies (PACT), a trade association for emerging growth companies in the technology and life sciences industries.
Hollister Creative, http://www.hollistercreative.com, consistently wins national awards for the writing and design of websites, publications, marketing collateral and educational outreach materials.
Last March, "Phorum 2012: Transforming Your Business with the Cloud" drew 400 top executives from around the country to World Cafe Live in Philadelphia. The Phorum website has kept interest alive with the Phorum Blog, Twitter posts (@phorumphilly) and online videos of presentations and panel discussions. "Phorum 2013: Harnessing Disruptive Technologies in the Enterprise" is expected to sell out quickly when tickets go on sale for the March 21, 2013 conference.
The Davey Awards honors the finest creative work from the best small companies worldwide. The annual competition attracts 4,000 entries from ad agencies, interactive agencies, production firms, in-house creative professionals, graphic design firms and public relations firms.
The Davey Awards is named for the Biblical hero who defeated the mighty Goliath with a big idea and a little rock. The awards honor the achievements of the "Creative Davids" whose strength comes from ideas, intelligence and out-of-the-box thinking, not a "giant's" bankroll.
The competition is judged and overseen by the International Academy of the Visual Arts, an invitation-only organization of leading professionals in the visual arts. Current Academy members represent media, advertising and marketing firms, including Condè Nast, Michael Kors Inc., Disney, The Ellen Degeneres Show, Microsoft, HBO, Monster.com, MTV, Polo Ralph Lauren, Sotheby's Institute of Art, Victoria's Secret and Howcast.
