It’s been a while since the last UKSN event now and a lot has happened since May’s ‘Video: A Missed Opportunity?‘ evening seminar with YouTube, BT Sport, Copa90 and The RFU.  The reception for that event was fantastic with another sold out crowd in attendance.

The aim when it has comes to both the content on the website and our events that we’ve run, has always been to educate and inspire. This is going to come even more to the fore now that I’m able to spend the majority of mine devoted to working on UKSN.

Between now and the end of the year there will be a number of different events in London, Brighton and then Leeds. These will be of different formats and around key topics in the industry. You’ll also be seeing changes to the website and new features added on a regular basis after that.

Two of the events I’ve been working have now gone live for bookings…
