I attended the AANA & WFA Global Marketers Conference 2014 (aana.com.au/gmc2014) with Darren Wolley and fellow Senior Consultants at TrinityP3.
There were some great speakers including Martin Riley, CMO, Pernod Ricard; Marc Mathieu, Senior VP Marketing, Unilever; Michelle Froah, APAC Senior Regional Marketing Director, Kimberly-Clark; Ed Sanders, Director of Marketing, Glass Google; and the legendary Sir John Hegarty, Founder and Creative Partner, Bartle Bogarty Hegarty to name drop a few.
Like most events I go to these days, I tend to feel that we’re all talking about the same topics as we pave our way through this new era of business and marketing.
Brand advertisers have woken up to realising that they’re “not just digital marketers, but marketers in a digital world.” And people-centric, purpose-driven marketing is finally taking centre stage from product features and an all out focus on profit.
In addition to the networking opportunities, I also tend to pick up some great new case studies. I’d love to share TEN of them with you.
