The South Florida Interactive Marketing Association (SFIMA) hosted its 8th Annual Nautical Networking Event on Oct. 21, dubbed “White Hot on the Yacht.” At last year’s Nautical Networking event, SFIMA pledged $17,500 to provide a $3,500 scholarship each year for five years to a graduate student at the H. Wayne Huizenga School of Business and Entrepreneurship who is undertaking the M.B.A. or M.B.A. in Entrepreneurship program. The recipient would be a student pursuing a career in the digital marketing arena.

At the pre-boarding press conference, SFIMA presented a $3,500 check to Melissa Kweller, an M.B.A. student at the Huizenga Business School. Melissa is the first recipient of SFIMA’s new Future Digital Leaders Scholarship Fund.

The event was presented by BGT and Adobe, and sponsored by ExactTarget.  Guests attended Florida’s largest networking cruise for interactive marketers aboard the Biscayne Lady in Hollywood, FL.
