BIMA D-Day 2013: 5,000 kids set to work with experts from over 100 digital agencies across the country
BIMA, in association with The Drum, launched Digital Day, or D-Day, last year in response to the UK's digital skills shortage.
Partnering digital agencies with schools, around 1,800 pupils were challenged to a range of practical tasks spanning app design, coding and social media.
But this year has proved more popular than ever, with over 100 agencies responding to BIMA’s call to get involved in the scheme.
And so tomorrow, Thursday 10 October, hundreds of digital experts from the likes of DigitasLBi, Code ComputerLove, McCann and SapientNitro will be offering their insight, experience and advice on beginning a career in the digital industry to nearly 5,000 pupils.
