immediate future CEO Katy Howell in BIMA Hot 100 – again!

We are thrilled to learn that Katy is on the BIMA Hot 100 list this year. It’s a wonderful accolade, and to be ranked among the digital industry’s brightest stars for the second year in a row is outstanding. There are a lot of very proud and smiley consultants at IF HQ!

Set up to recognise who’s hot in digital, the Hot 100 are an elite group. Those featured have been nominated by peers and chosen by a selection panel at BIMA (the British Interactive Media Association) in association with Nokia.

Katy was quick to share the news with the IF team, as receiving this recognition is not only great for Katy (of course it is!). But it’s a wonderful affirmation for the agency she’s built – showing that the contributions Katy and the team make are having a real impact on the industry.

Under Katy’s guidance immediate future has always worked hard to be at the forefront of social media. It’s why we are official social media trainers with the IDM, CIM, CiPR, and E-consultancy. And it’s why we are a top 5 most respected social media consultancy according to E-consultancy & NMA.

Congratulations to Katy from the whole IF team!
