Very important #sockies people
The finalists of the 2012 Bord Gáis Energy Social Media Awards have been announced, with companies like Dublin Zoo, Vodafone Ireland and Today FM among those shortlisted.
As usual, the #sockies organisers embraced free nominations and received double the number of entries on last year’s inaugural event by deadline day on March 30. Nominations were received from over 200 individual Irish companies and organisations and were shortlisted by a panel of over 100 judges.
“The awards aim to recognise talent in online interaction, engagement and innovation and highlight best practice and importance of social media in business.” – #sockies
The event organisers also noted the growing quality and use of video in social media marketing and that, unsurprisingly, Facebook categories received the highest number of nominations.
The awards will take place on May 17 in the Mansion House, Dublin and cheap tickets are now on sale. The finalists are as follows:
