For an unconference organising committee, life always gets a little easier when a major sponsor steps in. So imagine how thrilled we were to have one our own committee members, Mitch Joel, step up to the plate along with his agency partners, to support the Montreal new media community in a major way.

Headquartered in Montreal – with an brand-spanking new office in Toronto – Twist Image is a Digital Marketing and Communications agency that does everything from the strategy, design, content and technology to the marketing. And though they’re known for their prowess in the Social Media space, the bulk of their work is online marketing – everything from Website and microsite development to email and search marketing programs.

Mitch Joel’s weekly podcast, Six Pixels of Separation, the Twist Image podcast, currently sitting at Episode 117, is available through iTunes. His blog is online at the Twist Image site. He also writes a regular column featured in the business sections of the Montreal Gazette and Vancouver Sun newspapers called Six Pixels of Separation – New Business.
