Social Media Week is an annual conference that takes place simultaneously in multiple cities around the world. The aim is to identify and advance uses of social media in the corporate, public and non-profit sectors.

The second annual conference takes place between February 1st - 5th, 2010 simultaneously in New York City, Berlin, London, San Francisco, Toronto and São Paulo. The five day conference will explore the profound impact that social media has on culture, business communications and society at large.

The week-long, international Social Media Week conference is designed as a series of localized events, which city partners are responsible for organizing.  Over the course of the week and in each city, programs will span a variety of formats, ranging from talks, presentations and panel discussions, to interactive workshops, seminars, networking events and drinks receptions.
