The 8th Thailand Zocial Awards 2020 to recognize the outstanding social media professionals ended successfully and spectacularly. It was the grandest social-media event and to give awards to brand, influencers and outstanding entertainment business.
Under the concept of SHIFT: Make it Shift, the award winners were those who elevated their social-media works to the next level. Many well-recognized online Guru from various business circles took part in our WISESIGHT METRIC Update employing AI and Data Science to assess top performers in each social media circle. Serving as the MCs at the event were Bam Pitipat Kootrakul and Na Nek Ketsepsawat Palakawong. The event took place on February 29, 2020, at KBank Siam Pic-Ganesha Center of Performing Art, 7thFloor, Siam Square One.
According to Kla Tangsuwan, Chief Executive of WISESIGHT (Thailand), said “The upcoming 8th Thailand Zocial Awards will comprise many highlights and increased substance. We aim to take the application of social media to the next level such that it becomes more creative and efficient. The aim corresponds to our concept of SHIFT: Make it SHIFT. Social media has been with us for more than ten years, and there has been a significant growth of new data and rapid changes. As such, the time has come to de-emphasize the application of traditional social media, embrace new ideas, and keep up to current trends. Also, we must become more responsive to new platforms, especially ones that relate to membership application service. And market trends indicate an increasing number of businesses moving toward such service. Are Thai professionals ready? That is the reason why we invite everyone to make a SHIFT. Furthermore, we have updated the awarding criteria to become more reflective of the usage of social media of Thai consumers. For example, the strength of a given brand must comprise a substance that is appealing to consumers and influencing them to shift preference to the brand. Also, there will be more awards available for new businesses that have promising potential for data growth.”
