dd:IMPACT is Digital DUMBO’s half-day bi-annual conference showcasing digital innovation that fundamentally disrupts, evolves and advances business and culture.

The first dd:IMPACT of 2013 will explore how the most successful companies and brands use content and platforms to spark movements and increase their bottom lines. We'll examine how content allows creatives to work more closely with digital teams to create new products, partnerships, and businesses through the next wave of campaigns, experiential activations, curators, storytelling, media, platforms, and more.

Today, Digital DUMBO is a global platform to better allow digital communities everywhere to meet one another, tap into emerging trends in the digital and cultural arenas, and to shape the future of their businesses and lifestyles. We take our name from the neighborhood we call home, DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass), Brooklyn.

Over the past 4 years we've grown to over 13,000 members with communities in Brooklyn, Boston, London, Valencia, and Dallas. We've partnered with progressive startups and global technology, media, and professional services firms including Google, Microsoft, AT&T, AOL, UK Trade & Investment, Deloitte, NASDAQ OMX, to connect our members with companies changing the world through digital media and technology.
