IFEA Europe - as well as IFEA World and IFEA affiliates - are now on LinkedÍn and Facebook. Both of these social networks will be used for member discussions, association and industry news, and hopefully also provide an opportunity for bilateral and group exchange among members.
However, the festivals and events industry covers a broad rance of organisations and individuals. Making a search on the keywords can be an important first step to link up with people and groups that can help your business: Artists, suppliers, agents, destination management professionals, music industry professionals, researchers, évent planners, and many, many others.
Be selective, and set a strategy for your connection with people. Will you use the group actively, respond to messages, and start discussions - or will you just be an observer. Remember that maintenance of social networks can be time consuming.
