Andrew Smyk will be presenting “Digital Kids on Branding, Privacy and Technology Bias” at this year’s FITC Toronto in April.
Learn why the next generation of tech savvy kids will change how we design and deliver content and digital experiences. This cohort will break down the traditional ideas of branding, marketing and personal privacy and continue in their dependence on online information and social media.
Andrew Smyk is the Program Coordinator of Interactive Media in the Sheridan Interactive Media one year post grad, Oakville, Canada where students learn to build mobile and Web environments in which users can create, communicate and play.
