Seattle Digital Agency Sponsors Mashable Summer Tour

IDEA signs on as local sponsor for Mashable Summer Tour's Seattle Meet-up

IDEA, a digital agency based in Houston and Seattle, has signed on to sponsor the July 10th Seattle stop on the Mashable Summer Tour, a series of meet-ups hosted by Mashable in five cities across the United States. With an expected crowd of 400 attendees, the Seattle event will attract marketers, entrepreneurs, agencies, social media mavens, and tech enthusiasts in the Northwest.

"It's important for us to be involved and supportive of our local Seattle community," said Caesar Vielmas, Senior Vice President and Managing Director of IDEA. "We have been fortunate to work in a market that houses leading brands, creative minds, and promising start-ups, so we saw this Mashable meet-up as the perfect opportunity to meet all of these talented professionals," continued Vielmas. IDEA's Seattle team will attend the event and mingle with attendees, offering a lucky attendee the chance to win an iPad.

Mashable, a popular online publication and resource for social media and technology news, has gained popularity among tech enthusiasts, marketing professionals, and other key online audiences since its inception almost five years ago. With the announcement of IDEA as a sponsor, Pete Cashmore, CEO of Mashable, adds, "The Mashable Summer Tour aims to connect local social media communities in cities around the US. We're excited to welcome IDEA as the local sponsor for the Seattle event, sharing our joint aim of bringing together tech and social media aficionados in the Seattle area."

Starting at 8 p.m., the meetup will take place at the Hyatt in downtown Seattle. Along with IDEA, Microsoft's search engine, Bing, is also a local sponsor. Attendees will have the opportunity to network and socialize with other figures in the Northwest community, making new friends and reconnecting with old ones.
