The Mods Take CultureTECH 2015
American football will be in full play and Munich will be preparing for the opening celebration of Oktoberfest on September 19th, but for Metaverse Mod Squad, CultureTECH 2015 will be the place to find us from September 12–20. As the marquee sponsor, we’re excited to be involved in this industry conference, which combines tech and entertainment innovation, a makers’ fair, STEM education and citywide public-engagement programs. A weeklong event with tech, media, music, and games for the whole family. Definitely a Mod’s cup of tea (or in this case, pint of beer), no?
When we first were evaluating Derry as a base for our European Operations Centre, CultureTECH definitely got our attention. We knew immediately we wanted to be a part of it — in a big way. With more than 40,000 expected attendees, the organizers certainly welcomed our support and enthusiasm. During the week, Derry-based Mods will volunteer with everything from the City Arcade video games to the interactive technology exhibits to the live music street party.
And that’s not all, because if there’s one thing we love here at Metaverse, it’s an excuse to move it and shake it with 40,000 of our newest friends. To that end, we’re capping off the fun by sponsoring the festival-closing party on September 20: Metaverse Mod Squad’s Craft Beer Sunday at the Walled City Brewery. If you are attending CultureTECH, come join us for an afternoon of fine Irish craft beers, awesome BBQ, and live music featuring rising stars The Clameens.
This couldn’t be a better time for an event like CultureTech for Metaverse Mod Squad. In the few months we’ve been in Derry, we have experienced great local support and have seen our business grow. We’ve expanded as far as staffing in the region and are pleased to see warm receptions from businesses that need our services. Our plans for growth — both on the hiring end and business development sides — are not slowing down, so if you know of great folks in the Northern Ireland area interested in joining Metaverse, have them apply today. For those of you who are trying to create amazing customer engagement and want to work with the best in the field when it comes to customer service, moderation, social media, and community management, be sure to connect with us.
Follow us this week on Instagram to see our updates and photos from CultureTECH. If you are able to attend, we will be the ones in the matching T-shirts, so come by and say hello… Or, as the locals say, dia duit.
