[DigitalEyez 2008] Overview

April 21st, 2008

DigitalEyez started with a dream! A dream to innovate, a dream to bring something new, a dream to do big with small team, a dream to achieve the impossible and who else can see this dream other than our very own The Webmaster Team. Hats off to the team. You guys and girls did a superb job!

My interaction with the team started during the first week of February when a friend said “Webmaster is going for a All-Pakistan Photography event”, my first reaction was “WHAT! Webmaster aur Photography event? Dimaag karab hoo gaya hai inn ka”, then he asked “Why not?”, my answer was “Why not a website designing competition? I will sponsor that and it will go with the theme and objectives of the Webmasters”. So ultimately, web designing and other competitions were added to the DigitalEyez recipe. Sponsorship deal confirmed on 12th February ( Thanks to Ammar for making a nice package for us :P ). So, from day 01, I started criticizing about the team lack of response, poor marketing material etc etc. Azim and Talha are the guys who took notice of all my complains and reacted immediately. Thanks guys! My criticizing was just to speed up the process and to improve your marketing material :). All in all it was a enjoyable journey with the team to make this event successful.

@Azim - How can I forget all those late night IM messages, server problems, domain issue :)

@Talha - How can I forget all the khuwari we did in making Shields, Stickers, Banners, printing webmaster badges and khappa’s ;)

@Farrukh – Thanks for letting me know about the Café Vision – Young Achievers thing!

@Muhammad Atif – Thanks for making Web Designing a success for us!

I know, expectations were not that high but the team pulled out a awesome event within the allotted budget. I will do another post from sponsors point of view, to read more about the DigitalEyez experience, lots of people blogged about it here, here, here , here and here. So, at the end, my mail to the team, faculty and dean says all


Assalamu-Alikum

Dear Team, first of all I would like to thank you all for your contribution in making DigitalEyez a success for Nuvica. As you all know, this event was the first event that we sponsored in Pakistan. I am thankful to the DigitalEyez team for making this event a rocking one for us. You guys/girls deserve a gift from our end. So, stay tuned for that!

Nuvica as a young startup company got a lot of promotion through this event. Our name was on the same level as that of Kalsoft , TPS and Canon. Web Design competition was a rocking one as we got many design samples for our new Nuvica website. We were able to highlight many talented resources during the event and most of them InshAllah will be the part of Nuvica Team. To my amaze, I was able to attract a lot of non-technical students i.e. participants of Expression got interested in joining Nuvica as Designers. 100+ participants attended this event which is higher than Procom and other
competitions previously held in Karachi. Nuvica representation on Young Achievers Program was awesome. All in all a tremendous event for us. In the end, I would like to say SORRY if Nuvica gave you people some hard time.

So, DigitalEyez 2009 going International, that’s great news guys. So, I am taking this opportunity to announce Nuvica as the sponsor for next wave too :). You guys did it! Congrats again!

So guys, Party Time!

Best regards,

Ali Raza Shaikh
