Mayor Dyer Welcomes Downtown Orlando’s Newest Digital Media Company

WHAT: Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer will join Bob Allen, Owner and Principal Executive of IDEAS, and members of the Downtown Orlando community to celebrate the relocation of one of Central Florida’s largest digital media studios, IDEAS, to Downtown Orlando.

IDEAS is an acronym that stands for innovation, design, entertainment, art and storytelling. IDEAS brings to Downtown Orlando, a staff that includes a collection of creative talent with more than three hundred years of aggregate experience in the creative development, production and post production of high-quality television, film, audio, multi-media productions and themed environments.

IDEAS will continue working in the same disciplines while utilizing the new Downtown location to expand its offerings to clients, continuing to develop IDEAS’s own intellectual property and join the City’s efforts in establishing the Creative Village in Downtown Orlando.

The Creative Village will turn the current approximate 50-acre site of the Amway Arena into a mixed-use office, residential and retail development, anchored by Downtown’s growing digital media industry. The village will be a place where professionals in the new media industry could live, work and play.

Be there tomorrow as IDEAS unveils a special gift for Downtown and their vision for Orlando’s Creative Village.
