What are the DiMAS?

Taking place in the hotbed of digital creativity that is Brighton on 27th November 2008, the DiMAS recognise the growing convergence taking place across the different digital disciplines and, by bringing them together in one awards event, reward the very best of them on one not-to-be-forgotten night. If you work for or run a web agency or a games studio, specialise in social media, are an e-learning business, write a blog, or are an animation or digital TV company then these awards are for you: entry to any of the categories is free and the deadline for submission of entries is Wednesday 22nd October.
