I dig Giggidy Gig

It was one day, approximately 4 months ago, when my fellow student Dimitris Balios approached me and told about an idea he had. An internet platform which would perfectly connect bands with the right venues. I -in a sort of way- involve in the music industry and i understand the lack of time and communication between band and venue owner’s, so i agreed to take part in this brilliant idea.

Getting Started

After the end of the Ad workshop conducted by Betty Tsakarestou, Assistant Professor at the Department of Communication Media and Culture of Panteion Univeristy, Dimitris introduced me to the other members of the project, Charis Zarbalas, Danai Lyratzi, Asimina Christodoulatou & Panayotis Reppas. Then, after the role and task distribution we started working on the main idea of the project and ofcourse it’s name.

Let their be ‘’Giggidy Gig’’

Dimitris, came up with the name ‘’giggidy gig’’, which is kinda catchy and icludes the keyword of our idea ‘’gig’’. Regarding the main idea we decided that ‘’Giggidy gig’’ will be a communication hub where musicians can find venues and venues can find musicians for their live events. Whether someone is new to this or he has already been experienced in planning a gig, our team will do their best to provide a perfect match for him and the neccesery promotion for his gig.
