LOS ANGELES, Sept. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Diva Summit has proven to bring
together the best and the brightest Los Angeles digital industry has to offer.
 But it's only for the girls.  This Saturday in Santa Monica, CA nearly 100
female executives of all title levels from Disney, Fox, Beyond Interactive,
Starcom, Deutsch, Initiative, Mindshare, MTV, AOL, iFilm, Yahoo! and Sony come
together for a day of surfing, yoga and collaboration.

Marian Thomas, founder of Digital Diva, wanted to create a place where women
in the media community can share experiences, gain insights of the industry
and network and just have a good time.  "I was tired of the boys' network and
organizations that require high fees and exclusion depending on job title. 
This group is not exclusionary and anyone can join, from interns and
assistants to VPs and Presidents.  In fact the more diverse in experience, the
better."

"Being inspired by other women in the business and to be that inspiration for
those younger in the industry," said Sara Bordo, SVP Marketing for
SocialVibe.com, "is what Marian's mission and hard work is all about."
