Social Media Week came and went before we knew it – but we at Pinch Social are extremely pleased with the result. Luckily, we had some great photographers involved who captured the event beautifully. We’re fortunate to have the opportunity to look back and revisit some of the special moments from the event. Continue to see our photo recap of all the great happenings at #SMWiTO!

Day 1 at TIFF we had a captive, energetic audience and were treated to some great insights. Plenty of bums in seats and lots of laptops & devices taking notes and sharing through social!

The @500px photo walk was an adventure that explored and emphasized the amazing imagery that can be captured right here in Toronto. What would social media be without great images?
