We postponed the event in hopes of still holding an in-person event, but the pandemic had different plans, so we did a condensed virtual event in July, 2020.<\/p>\n<h2>A Multi-week Virtual Event for 2021<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-10442\" src=\"http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/BIRU-WP-20210619T153132GMT-0400-1-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/BIRU-WP-20210619T153132GMT-0400-1-300x300.png 300w, http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/BIRU-WP-20210619T153132GMT-0400-1-150x150.png 150w, http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/BIRU-WP-20210619T153132GMT-0400-1.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">For 2021, we decided to stay virtual again with hopes for an in-person event again for the 5th summit in 2022. We also decided to make a name change from the Bloggers Summit to the Digital Media Summit for a more inclusive feel. But unlike 2020, where we packed the event into a single afternoon, we\u2019ve decided to have one session per week for several weeks on Sunday evenings from August 8 &#8211; October 3 with a two week break around Labor Day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-10443\" src=\"http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/BIRU-WP-20210706T172946GMT-0400-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/BIRU-WP-20210706T172946GMT-0400-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/BIRU-WP-20210706T172946GMT-0400-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/BIRU-WP-20210706T172946GMT-0400.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We have great sessions with <a href=\"http:\/\/ncwineguys.com\/index.php\/ncwine-digital-media-summit\/2021-ncwine-digital-media-summit-speakers\/\">fun speakers for 2021<\/a>.
